Re: Uffz. Wolfganf Ortlepp--Stab/JG2--July 1943

Just realized this 381st BG bomber could not have been shot down by Ortlepp. According to Prien, Freeman, etc. the 381st bombed Le Mans and were attacked by II. Stab/JG2, 6./JG2 and 12./JG2. That means, it had to be G-P Eder, Karch, Aue, Montanus, or Zubrowski.



Geschwaderstab/JG2, including Ortlepp, attacked the bombers targeting Nantes. Only one of these went down, a B-17 from the 92nd BG.
