Bf109s shot down over/off Crete 1944?
Hi guys
I believe III/JG27 operated from Rhodes late 1943, but returned to Crete early 1944? Did IV/JG27 remain at Rhodes?
On 10 April 1944, I note that two Bf109s III/JG27 (Heckmann & Reckamsier) FTR from Crete, possibly collided in air? Any confirmation?
On 31 May 1944, I note that a Bf109 of III/JG27 was shot down. Who?
I understand that III/JG27 was recalled to Germany circa June 1944, and some pilots transferred to 5/JG51 which had arrived at Crete from ? and when?
On 8 July 1944 two Bf109s (5/JG51?) were claimed shot down by Spitfires of 94 Squadron off Crete. Confirmation?
On 10 August 1944, another Bf109 was claimed by 94 Squadron off Crete.
Details?
Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Brian
