Re: 16 April 1942 Spitfire claims against JG2
Apologies. Checking 485 ORB it shows that the 16 April 1942 details (3 Fw190 destroyed) shown in Foreman's RAF Victory Claims 1941-43 and FCWD are in error and that in fact they relate relates to a combat on at 1745 near Hesdin on 24 April 1942. It would appear 401 Squadron encountered JG2 in mid-afternoon and misidentified Bf109s as Fw190s.
