Re: StG.2 loss (crash) on 8 July 1942 - Russland

Jim and Leo,

My gratitude for the information about those 3 losses. Without both of you I wouldn't know about them.

Sadly I am still unable yet to scan the photograph and check the full code of the machine. However it looks like the first one (60% damaged) fills what I can see on the photo. The machine was recovered by a LW team and heavily camouflaged with trees. There was another shot showing it being recovered by a truck, but I lost this one.

The date is clearly 8 July 1942 and we can not see too much damages on it...When I will be able to fix the PC where I do have the Photoshop installed, I shall post the image here.

However, we can not discount a machine recovered on the 8 July but damaged on the previous day...

A.
