Re: Ju-188 versus intruder on 29th December 1944

What is your source for the story of the Mosquito attacks, Günther Gellermann's book?

There was a I./KG 200 operation that night from 0105-0355 (see the attached document for the Luftwaffe's report of the night's operations) but no rport of any attack or casualty.

RAF Mosquito units operating over Italy at the time were Nos. 256 and 600 Squadrons; from the USAAF there was the 416th NFS. I am not aware of any claim by these units (or any reported contact). The Operations Record Books of the two RAF Squadrons are available for download from the UK National Archives.
