Hello at all,

does anybody know which night fighter pilot shot down a Lancaster III (OL-Q, PB345; Pilot: A.L. Williams; target Darmstadt) in the night of August 25th to 26th 1944 near Neckarburken / Mosbach, Germany?

Thanks, Wolf

Hello Wolf

According to The Nachtjagd War Diaries by Boiten and Mackenzie this aircraft was possibly shot down by Unteroffizier Hans Rechenberg of 1./NJG 6 as his first victory at 0:55 southeast of Darmstadt on 24 August 1944. I hope this helps.

Horrido!

Thanks, Leo!!!
Do you perhaps also know who shot down a Lancaster III (ND 786 DX-I / Pilot: G.J.Mee, target Schweinfurt) in the night of 26th to 27th April 1944 near Miltenberg (Main)?
