Re: 19th Dec 1943

I have no record of Oblt. Emil Bitsch, Stkp. of 8./JG 3, crashing on 19-Dec-43. Bitsch did make a claim on that day at PlQu. 04 Ost S / KC. There were 2 III./JG 3 machines reported lost south/southeast of Innsbruck, Austria that day with no named pilots. Südtirol/Italy likely very well relate to the reported loss location. Unfortunately the crash sites aren't specifically reported in the losses. I certainly may have overlooked something where he is named in the sources I have. Can you fill in the details?
