Re: Location of place called 'Mittelfüssen' (?), 25 km NW of Düsseldorf (noted in late 1943 Nachtjagd claim)
Hello everyone,

even with a lot of imagination I cannot read "Mittelfüssen" in the OKL/RLM Nachtjagd Abschussmeldungen, especially since such a place does not exist to my knowledge. For me it is 100% certain that Widdeshofen is written there. However, the place is spelled with a "v" instead of "f" and is therefore correctly called: Widdeshoven and is located south-southwest of Düsseldorf. Phonetically, the two letters do not differ significantly in German, but often sound the same.

I would now be interested in the entry in the flight log, where it supposedly says "northwest".

Regards,
Claudia
