Hi Mark,
Information from Manfred Boehme JG7 book, Schiffer Ed, p 137:
With 21 kills, during 4 missions, 31 Marsh 45 had been JG7 greatest one-day success of the war.
The first mission, on early morning, with 20 Me 262 from I./JG7 + 7 from III./JG7 + a little later 8 more Me 262 from 9 and 10./JG7, got 13 Lancasters and Halifaxes kills over 419, 429, 431, 434, 408, 415 and 425 Squadrons.
R4M rockets were used with success. But were very probably fired only by III./JG7 since I./JG7 was not yet cleared to used them if i m right.
Known pilots involved in this first mission: Oblt.Stehle, Oblt. Grünberg, Flieger Gerhard Reiher, Oblt. Sturm, Lt. Todt, Lt. F.W. Schenk, Oblt. Schall, Fhr. Ehrig, Lt. Weihs. (Nothing about individual callsign)
No losses recorded for JG7.
Cheers,
Olivier,
