I know that Georg Peter Eder took over 6./JG26 in mid-August 1944 when Addie Glunz went off on a temporary duty assignment. Can anyone tell me if Eder flew on 25 Aug 44? II./JG26 (led by Emil Lang) engaged 23 P-38s of the 474th FG that day near Beauvais, France. It appears most of II./JG26 was in on it since they put up 32 Fw190s. I have yet to confirm if Eder was on this mission leading the 6th Staffel. If Eder did not fly on 25 Aug 44, does anyone know who led 6th Staffel on this mission?

I do know that Lt. Gerhard Vogt (Kap.5./JG26) and Lt. Wilhelm Hofmann (Kap.8./JG26) were on this mission, so that leads me to believe that Eder may have been also.

Also, can anyone confirm that Lt. Hans Prager was Staffelkapitaen of 7./JG26 as of 25 Aug 44 and if he was on this mission also? Right now I am just guessing based on the best info I have.

Thanks in advance,
