Hi.

I do not think Keller was anywere near Leningrad, as he probably took off from St.Omer-Wizernes on a fighter-bomber sortie against England. The 10.(Jabo)/JG 54 was the 10.(Jabo)/J.G.26 after renaming, and went on to become part of S.K.G.10 in April 1943 (so it only existed for about 2 months).

Loss record here:

The aircraft lost by JG 54 on 18.06.43 was the following according to my list:

http://www.ahs.no/ref_db/lw_loss_pub...?lossid=111677

http://www.ahs.no/ref_db/lw_loss_pub...?lossid=111678

http://www.ahs.no/ref_db/lw_loss_pub...?lossid=111679

None of these seems to be directly linked to an aerial combat.

Keller was definitely killed in action in the west (see my book 'Tip & Run') and as Andreas says, elements of JG 26 and JG 54 switched designations

Ok, Thanks!
My list is lacking area of crash, so its all getting clearer now.
