Hi Guys

Checked through the JG51 book which states that Bracke had two claims with JG51 and Brunke nine.....which is more than a little incorrect. However it does state that Brunke was an Uffz at death and not Fw.....this would make the last three of Brunke's claims(by Foreman/Mathews) Bracke's i.e:-

24th February 1943 Il-2 x 2 0635 hrs and 0637 hrs and 12th March 1943 Pe-2 0935 hrs !

Whereas I myself believe them to be Brunke and similarity in names is so close, can't be 100% sure. I do have the 1943 micro films losses, but they are quite chaotic, but I will try to find Brunke's rank at death!

Regards
