Hello Eric,

I don't know but have looked at the Les Butler Lists and see that Hóhler had two claims on the 21st September 41, one at 16.24 the other at 17.43. Is it known who he shot down on these occassions ?

Again he had a hat-trick on the 8th November when he claimed three. one at 12.25, a second at 12.30 and the third at 12.38.Again is it known who he shot down.

I add that all the above are given as Spitfire claims.

From FCL vol 1
POWs for 21st Sept were -
S/Ldr Armitage 129 Sqdn
Sgt. Parris 607 Sqdn
Sgt. Carter 616 Sqdn

For the 8th November there were -
P/O.Gutowski 302 Sqdn
S/Ldr.Szczeszniewki 315 Sqdn
S/Ldr. Wilczewski 316 Ssqdn
F/O. Weir 401 Sqdn (RCAF)
P/O Greenaway 501 Sqdn

Hóhler was lost in the Channel on 8th December 41 (see Mombeek's website)

have not looked at Coastal or Bomber Books.

All the best

Alex
