Re: JG1 Mission Summary Report 14 July 1944
Thanks, Babin. At least now I know not to waste my time looking for a copy of the book. I already had that information. What I'm really looking for are the squadron or group historical reports.
My father's E&E Report to the British Army upon his liberation states, "Five or six Me 109s were on my tail. Three were actually firing at me."
Ihlefeld, Grislawski and Vogel each received credit for a Mustang at the exact same time, 19h17, in the Caen area (Vogel has no location listed, but I believe he was flying with JG1 that day) on 14 July 1944. Just one USAAF Mustang was lost during the entire day of 14 July 1944 - my father at that approximate time.
Were there any historical reports made by the group or squadrons?
Does anyone, private collectors possibly have access to the Ihlefeld, Grislawski or Vogel logbooks?
Neil
