Fw Harbach of JG 77, Norway 1940
Hello
I have two questions about this pilot:
_ has someone his complete name ? And his fate after the Norway campain ?
_ according to Tony Wood's claimlist, he claimed a victory against a Skua SSW of Bergen at 1750 hrs on 3 October 1940. The day before (2 October), in a raid on German shipping in Bjornefjord, south of Bergen, by the British 801 Squadron from Hatston, the Skua II L2929 was shot down and S/Lt Alan Hartoch and Naval Airman Eric J. Adlam were killed. All my sources agree that the Skua was lost on the 2nd, and some say Harbach shot down it, but then the date of his victory in Tony's list is wrong. I don't have the Prien & co book on Norway 1940, so can someone check if this victory is still shown on the 3rd there ?
Thanks in advance
Laurent
