I found that 19 Squadron was somewhat involved in the particular dogfight I am researching, so would like some help this way:
A certain E.S.Hughes claimed a Fw 190 destroyed that day. I do REALLY NEED to know:
1- Time and location of his claim
2- IF 19 Squadron suffered any loss this day, while flying their duties. If yes, could someone inform me the names, aircraft involved, etc...? ( Some link? )
Glad in advance

Slee & Metzler were shot down in combat with II./JG 6 I think!
II./JG 6 lost two Fw 190's and pilots in this combat!
