Hi Guys

Thanks for your replies.

Regarding the claim for 13.06.1944, it's real enough a "viermot" over Raalte at 0134 hrs 3800 hrs with 11./NJG 1. Originally I thought Karl-Georg Pfeiffer as it was by a Feldwebel with IV./NJG 1, but the flugbuch of Karl-Georg does not have a claim for that night. He actually numbered his claims in this book. Therefore as odd as it seems there must/should be another Feldwebel Pfeiffer flying for IV./NJG 1.

The flugbuch abschüße almost match the mikrofilms exactly:-

Mikrofilms flugbuch

6./NJG 2 24.09.1942 Stirling 40-70km N Nordeney 0355 hrs 700 metres Nr.1 0315-0448 hrs flight time.
10./NJG 1 17.01.1943 Lancaster 10km W Vlieland 2329 hrs Nr.2 2201-2346 hrs flight time.
10./NJG 1 05.05.1943 Stirling 3km E Groningen 0100 hrs 3800 metres Nr.3 2350-0120 hrs flight time.
10./NJG 114.05.1943 Lancaster 20km W Den Helder 0359 hrs 4600 metres Nr.4 0318-0437 flight time.
10./NJG 1 28.05.1943 Stirling 70km NW Leeuwarden 0058 hrs 1300 metres Nr.5 0000-0129 hrs flight time.
10./NJG 1 11.06.1943 B-17 50km N Terschelling 1935 hrs 4300 metres Nr.6 1826-2000 hrs flight time.
10./NJG 1 12.06.1943 Wellington Schager 0249 hrs 4500 metres Nr.7 0009-0142 hrs flight time.
10./NJG 1 23.06.1943 Halifax 2km NE Scherwerhorn 0122 hrs 5400 metres Nr.8 0008-0152 hrs flight time.
12./NJG 1 04.12.1943 Halifax raum Waddenzee 0343 hrs 4500 hrs Nr.9 0129-0319 hrs flight time(discrepancy here)

This is not found on the mikrofilms, so highly likely unconfirmed:-

12./NJG 1 02.05.1944 "Viermot" flight time 2358-0138 hrs.


Either my early fault has been duplicated, or another mikrofilm reader has jumped to the same false conclusion that the 13.06.1944 claim was by Karl-Georg !

Kind Regards
