Re: Hptm. Friedrich Muer, IV./JG53
Hi,

the 5 a/c of the IV/JG53 returned from recce task (was conducted in area of Strassburg) and they were bounced by ca. 8 P-51 by landing. Though the warnings of the traffic control Hpt.Muer tried to land and was quickly s/d. This occured over airfield in Echterdingen. The IV/JG53 lost all together 4 Bf109`s in this incident.
