Re: Oblt Georg Claus

CLAUS, the Staffelkapitan of 1./JG51, went missing in action with RAF fighters during a complicated combat over the Thames Estuary during an escort sortie for Ju87s of StG1 on 11 November 1940 while flying Bf109F-1 (5635). Despite what has been published to the contrary, he was not taken prisoner, & there is no mention of him in relevant RAF Intelligence sources.
