Uffz Hans Freytag - WIA (so looks like he died of his wounds)
7./JG-53
Bf-109F-4 Trop WNr 7250 11+I
Shot down by Spitfire 30Km SE Qotaifiya

At 1100 came the fifth scramble of the morning for the Axis fighters; 13 MC202s (seven of 70 Squadriglia, 23 Gruppo, led by Magg Filippi and six of 10 Gruppo led by Cap Lucchini) intercepted a large formation of bombers and fighters. Five Bf 109s of III/JG-53 also took off at this time, followed by six from II/JG-27. The former unit engaged eight Spitfires, but Uffz Freytag was shot down, baling out with severe wounds within ten minutes of taking off, while a second Messerschmitt was damaged and force-landed.

Looking at the British claims list in that section of the book there are six claims for BF 109s for around that time although only two were flying Spitfires.
