Ernst-Erich Hirschfeld's Fw 190 A-8

Hi Kurse1342

Many thanks for the information that possibly he may have been brought down by Sgt Kemp. This was new to me and obviously it would be very interesting to know as many of the details surrounding this claim but the statement that although the pilot bailed out the parachute was not seen to open is intriguing. It is my understanding that the bombers claimed 1 destroyed, 2 probable and 1 damaged victories while the escorting fighters claimed 4 destroyed, 1 probable and 1 damaged victories on that particular mission to Merseburg.

Horrido!

Leo
