Re: Allied claims 08/02/1945

According to the book "Brennendes Land" by Fred Trendle, GC II/7 fought III./JG 53 that lost two Bf 109s, both pilots baling out. And 336th FS, 358th FG fought IV./JG 53 that lost 5 Bf 109s (1 KIA, 2 WIA, 2 baled out unhurt). Book gives location and WNr for each and pilot name for 4.

By the way in my digital files of GenAbt 6 Luftwaffe losses from 10 Feb to 1 April 1945,I could only find one of the above losses, Bf 109 K-4 332987 (pilot bailed out unhurt), reported on 28 Feb. I may have missed the other, but Michel can you tell me what is your source for the number of 10 Bf 109s lost that day ?
