Re: Luftwaffe claim 1 Jan 1945 - BE-NL border area -'Auster' type
I cannot really add much detail to what is listed in the book. We lack details on the claims of 1.1.45. Anyway, there is one German document from 3.1.45 (see page 287) that says that 7 Austers were claimed on 1.1.45. We know that Oblt. Markhoff (8./JG 4), Uffz. Krüger (13./JG 27) and Ofw. Isken (13./JG 53) claimed Austers. One might also consider the 1-mot claimed by Fw. Job (10./JG 11) as possible candidate.
Perhaps we can combine claims and losses when we know the exact locations of the losses.
