Re: K. Buhlingen Abschuss List
Good morning Gentlemen,
I fully agree with Leo's praise for Johannes and would like to add that Leo's biography about Bühligen is excellent both in content and style. I have cross-checked the victory list (105 kills) therein with the list of Johannes (99 kills). The additional kills that are in the Leo list but not confirmed in the Johannes list are:
26,9.40 Spitfire 1740
1,10.40 Hurricane S Bournemouth 1200
7,10.40 Hurricane S Portland 1655
4,9.41 Spitfire Boulogne-Somme estuary-Dover 1730
19,8.42 Spitfire 60km N St.Valery 1642
19,8.42 Spitfire 60km N St.Valery 1653
6,9.43 B-17 NM Mélun 1300
8,9.43 Hptm Boston S. Lille 900
one in the 26Nov43-18Mar44 period
The kills that are in the Johannes list but not confirmed in the Leo list are:
4,1.43 B-26 15km SSW Tdidjana 1044
21,1.43 P-40 W Djebel Trozzo 844
2,9.43 P-51 NW Auxi-le-Chateau 950
The kills that are not confirmed in neither list are:
10,11.40 Ofw Spitfire E Portland 1545
28,11.40 Ofw Spitfire Isle of Wight 1720
12,3.43 B-17 westlich E La Sebala 1422
9,6.44 N Paris
Intriguingly, both lists reach 112 if added up with the other.
