Re: Last combat of Egon Mayer

Gresham's film shows a violently maneuvering FW 190 taking deflection shots from approximately 300 yards, hits visibly in left wing root and outboard of fuselage, explosion approximately where the 20mm ammo is stored, wing shearing outboard of ammo storage, violent snap roll left, slowed and almost under control - then loss of control and uncontrollable left roll. end of film.

If that is Not what you have seen you have the wrong film segment. 358FS Walter Gresham, 355FG March 2, 1944.
