Michal:You question is a little broad. Many units were active and had losses that day. There are over 80 losses listed. Can you be more specific?

Well, only I would like to know (any concrete losses) which German fighters from which units were involved. Only with US bombers and fighters over Netherlands and over Germany in approximately straight line from dutch Enschede to Dresden in Saxony. And approximately in which areas and in what times. Nothing more. I don´t need precise answer, only this unit and this units were involved.

Thanks for help

Michal

II./ and IV./JG 53 with Bf 109s directly attributed to air battles with US forces. Many others are listed as crash landing some of which may be attributable to US actions. No 190s losses are listed as directly attributable to US actions although, again, there are crash landings listed.

Hi Michal,

the 356th and 364th FG was involved in dogfights with JG 300 and JG 301 in the Dresden-Chemnitz area. Which kind of information are you looking for ?
