Re: JG54 Victories
Another correction this time for Post #24. The Pe-2s were from the 82 GBAP (1 GBAD) and were led this day by Mayor Vasiliy Grigor'evich Pchelkin (MIA). So not the 82 BAP. Considering the number of losses claimed instead 4 Pe-2 to fighters and 1 Pe-2 to AAA (Some Soviet planes listed as AAA also fell to German fighters because they were already damaged and the Soviets didn't see the finish off. It might actually be 5 Pe-2 to fighters.)
In Tony Woods list it has Weiss claiming a Pe-2 at 17:07 on the 23 Aug 1943 but now that I have Prien's JFV 12/III it shows this is incorrect. It lists Weiss shooting down an Airacobra (54) at 17:07. So here is the corrected.
3./JG 54 Oblt Robert Weiss Pe-2 (52) 17:00 35 Ost/60123
" Pe-2 (53) 17:05 60133
1./JG 54 Obfw Anton Doebele Pe-2 (63) 17:01 60154
1./JG 54 Lt. Gerhard Loos Pe-2 (77) 17:02 60762
" Pe-2 (78) 17:04 61813
