Re: Search Spitfire 52 FG
JP - From Bob Hoover's book " Forever Flying " page 64.
A/C Sitfire Vc # MA 833 code WD-R.
After downing FW - 190 , he was bounced by 2 FW - 190s. Two of his Squadron Mates turned tail and ran for home - they were punished for it.
Hoover was shot down by Siegried "Bamm" Lemke. he bailed out , landed in water, picked up by German ship , POW Luft 1.
Lempke also shot down Pilots Bishop and Montgomery.

Mike
