Re: Lancaster R5679 shot down 25th September 1942
Hello and good morning chaps,
A quick reply -yes I got the claims details from the Nonnenmacher listing. Both Rod and I have been very busy over the past few years sieving out hundreds of 'suspect' or even downright falsified claims from the original Nonnenmacher listings, by the use of many dozens of new Nachtjagd Flugbücher, Leistungsbücher, Abschussmeldungen, Gefechtsberichte etc etc etc that we have mostly obtained from private collections. It's a painstaking and very time consuming business, but in the end -in 2015, with the 4-volume 2nd edition of the NJWD- we hope to present a much more accurate picture than we were able to do with the first (2 volume) edition of the NJWD in 2008.
John, I'll send you a PM re the Elstermann claims.
Cheers, Theo
