Ok here is the discrepancy:
Maybe somebody has the answer.
According to Fred's document the Lufthansa "Harry Rother" was shot down on 17 April 1944.
According to this source
https://aviation-safety.net/database...0115-1&lang=de
the "Harry Rother" crashed on 15 January 1944
Can somebody please shed some light into the different dates of crash?
