Re: Info Needed on Me109G-6 W.Nr. 165236

Dear Mike,

you're information concerning Bf 109 G-6 165 236 is quite puzzling - according to the WASt. report the aircraft was lost as pointed out my Matti on July 4th, 1944, with Lt. Manfred Thümmel being wounded, whereas Lt. Gerhard Schindler had to belly land on German held territory on June 10th being wounded, his aircraft Bf 109 G-6 WerkNr. 412 422, " white 1 " being moderatley damaged ( 20 % ). Schindler was not captured; to the contrary he soldiered on with IV./JG 27, acting temporarily as Staffelführer of 13./JG 27, being wounded again on December 16th, 1944.

So it would be interesting to learn where your information came from.

Regards

Jochen Prien
