Re: captured 4-engined bomber
Hello Erik,
Apparantly I failed to bring over my message: to my opinion the airfields visited by the B-17 Wulf Hound (i.e. Poix-Nord, Lille-Vendeville and Vitry-en-Artois) are to far away from the airfields St André de l'Eure or Triquevillewhere where your JG 2 pilot was when he witnessed the incident described.
Therefore I don't think that there is a match with B-17 Wulf Hound, unless your JG 2 pilot was actually at Poix-Nord... or Lille-Vendeville... or Vitry-en-Artois.
All the best, Marcel
