Hi guys

Feldwebel Wilhelm Mlodoch of 7./JG 300 killed in aerial combat in Fw 190 A-7 "White 2" (W.Nr. 430 698) over Krieglach/Wien

IV.(Sturm)/JG 3 claimed eight B-24 four-engined bombers shot down and one HSS. II.(Sturm)/JG 300 claimed two P-51 fighters and the Geschwaderstab of JG 300 claimed three more. II./JG 5 and II./JG 27, flying as top cover, claimed one B-24 bomber (by 6./JG 27) but lost three pilots (two from II./JG 5 and one from II./JG 27). 10./JG 300 claimed the P-38 twin-engined fighter.

I hope that this helps.

Horrido!
