Lt Urban Drews kill list?
hi
Quick question I havnt been able to find a list of kills for Urban Drew. I'm keen to know how many kills he had marked on the canopy of 'Detroit Miss' at the time of his October 7th mission where he shot down 2 Me262s I recall they were his 4th and 5th kills but cant find anything to say so Can anyone shed some light? Thanks Travis |

Drew also destroyed a Ju 52 on the ground on 16 June at Toussos/Le Noble so that would have been on his totals.
The question is whether or not he put the 11 Sep and 18 sep scores on his ship before 'official' 8th AF VCB confirmation - they often took 4-6 weeks to get throught the system. |

Short answer - as few as three and as many as 5 prior to shooting down the two Me 262s http://wp.scn.ru/en/ww2/f/165/3/15/26_b5 |

The 361 FG web page has this photo of Drew after his return from the sortie when he destroyed the Me 262s (according to the caption)
http://www.361fg.com/Main/Enlarge/375fs/drew.htm Those seven victory flags probably include the Me 262 victories so before the action there were most likely five of them Jan |

Cheers for the interest guys,
I just had a reply from a member of the 361stFG association who say Drew mentioned having 5 kill marks at the time of his double kill. |
Re: Lt Urban Drews kill list?
I thought he also had that big BV added to his total ?
