Re: Did Adolf Galland down B-17 "Struggle Buggy" on April 21, 1945
kaki3152,
According to period intell reports the following is noted under the heading of "Enemy Air Activity" for the 3rd.
...Five or six possible jet a/c were seen west of Kiel but no contact was made and one, of three Me.262s sighted over Flensburg was destroyed...
This loss is not mentioned in volume IV of Me.262 by Classics. So, who knows.
Apparently the 8th Air Force made the claim at 1630 hrs. The jets sighted west of Kiel were opperating at 27,000 ft and this was noted at 1700 hrs.
