Re: Hans Hahn
10 Jul 1941 Circus 41 Chocques
Still not enough details of how everything took place but the "overclaiming" was not that bad. Still not possible to link except maybe one.
RAF losses
72 Sqn High Cover
Spitfire Sgt A.J. Casey (KIA)
Spitfire Sgt C.L. Harrison (KIA)
Spitfire F/O J.M. Godlewski (KIA)
Spitfire (damaged)
92 Sqn High Cover
Spitfire Sgt Walden (rescued at sea. This was possibly by Josef Priller)
611 Sqn
Spitfire F/Sgt L. Hemingway (KIA)
Spitfire (damaged)
Spitfire (damaged)
Spitfire (damaged)
610 Sqn Target Support
Spitfire Sgt HCD Blackman (KIA buried at Mazieres)
Spitfire Sgt JE Anderson (POW)
Spitfire P/O P. Ward-Smith (POW)
Spitfire (damaged)
German claims
Stab-Fw Franz Willinger Stab III/JG 2 Spitfire 12:10 NW St Omer b. Watten
Fw Günther Seeger Stab/JG2 Spitfire 12:15 SE of Cassel
Obfw Kurt Bühligen 4/JG 2 Spitfire 12:18 & Spitfire 12:21 Unk locations
Lt. Erich Rudorffer Stab II/JG 2 Spitfire 12:20 Unk location
Hptm Hans Hahn Stab III/JG 2 Spitfire 12:08 & Spitfire 12:12 Unk location
Oblt Josef Priller 1/JG 26 Spitfire 12:30 N of St Omer & Spitfire 12:40 NW of Boulogne (The last possibly 92 Sqn because he went down in the channel but still nothing to truely confirm)
Lt. Robert Unzeitig 1/JG 26 Spitfire 12:43 Cape Griz Nez
Eight Spitfires lost and five Spitfires damaged against 10 claims is fairly good but still can't determine which Hahn ecountered.
