JG 77 over Ploesti

Good evening,

In a Fp.-letter (L 31587) to his brother, written 11.7.44, Uffz. (J?)oni Wolf from 7./JG 77, describes how he shot down an American fighter over Ploesti on the 9.7.44.

Now, in Werner Girbig's book "Die Luftoffensive gegen die deutsche Treibstoffindustrie und der Abwehreinsatz 1944-1945" he states two things:

1. Sunday, 9.7 1944, only I./JG 53, 10./JG 301 and II./JG51 flew over Ploesti. Not JG 77?

2. Monday, 31.7 1944, a Uffz. Woll from III./JG 77 is shot down. The same?

Perhaps somebody knows more about this?

Greetings
Hans
