Ju 87 shot down 21 Dec 1944 at Peronne
hi,
on 21 December 1943 a Ju.87 of I/SKG.10 was shot down by Canadian Spitfires over it's Airfield at Peronne. According to Hugh Godefroy in his book "Lucky 13" the pilot who finished it off was Claude Weaver, however neither "Aces High" or "Stars and Bars" credits Weaver with this victory also in "2nd TAF - Vol 1" and John Foreman's "FCWD - Vol 4" it is credited to F/O Hodgson and P/O Myers of 403 Squadron.
As Godefroy's account is very detailed I wonder who is correct?
Cheers
Bruce Lander
