Re: Heinz Bartels trio down on 23rd April 1944
Bartels also claimed three Mustangs east and southeast of Munich, one at Walkraiburg (one 355th pilot confirmed down there) and two others in a norherly axis from there... but on April 24, 1944 in a big battle around Munich.
The 355th and 357th FG lost combined 4 Mustangs (plus two more in mid air collisions with destroyed Me 110's) in this battle in which LW Me 109s claimed 13... theoretically 6 falling to JG27, 2 to JG3, 3 to JG26, one each to JG106, and JG301.
Regards,
Bill
