Re: He 219 claim on 17th.Dec.1944

Brian,
are you sure about the date?
I have a loss that would fit to your description on 28th November 1944 at 8:35 local time from the book "Nachtjäger Heinkel He 219" by Roland Remp. There is even a painted picture from this incident with the text:
"He 219 A-2 of 1.NJG 1 on 28th November 1944 after being hit by British Hawker Tempests, shortly before crash in Reckenfeld".
Reckenfeld is in the vicinity of Münster-Handorf
Crew of this loss are given as Lt. Kurt-Heinz Fischer and Uffz. Hermann Bauer. Werk-Nr. 290010, G9+MK
The only given losses in the book on 17th December would be a night loss.
Does this help?
Best wishes
Robert
