Re: Freidrich Obleser
I guess Obleser had Ermisch just as his wingman on the 03May43. So maybe someone needs this bit of information for their work on Obleser so here is what I found. Leytenant Ivan Dmitrievich Demidov of the 611 IAP (4VA) was sent on a reconn. mission over German positions. On returning he he had the misfortune of running across Obleser. He must have thought he got him with the first attack at 05:08 at 800 meters but then Ermisch thought he had another I-153 at 05:10 at 900 meters. Finally at 05:12 Obleser sent Demidov's I-153 down after hitting him at 200 meters. Demidov's wrecked plane was recovered in the Krymskaya region in the past few years.
