Re: I./SG 152 vs 15th USAAF, 10 May 1944

So called Einsatzkommando I./SG 152 based in Prostějov (Prossnitz) A/F took part in this attack. Pilots were selected from instructor of this unit and probably from most experienced scholars of this training unit. It is necessary to point out that in reality only pilots from Stab, 1. and 3./SG 152 were involved. It is not sure if they took-off from Prostějov A/F or were for short staioned on some of Vienna´s A/Fs. Probably they took off from Prostějov A/F. There are several known operations against US Bombers im April - June 1944 over Austria, last one, I./SG 152 (know IV./SG 151) was acted against US Bombers on August 25 1944 with loss at least 13 Fw 190A-5, A-6 and F-8.

I have got some additonal information because I am preparing an article on this theme - I./SG 152 and Moravia. I am not sure at the moment (I need to look to my remarks) but there were no losses of SG 152 on Mai 10 1944. I think the one known loss of SG 152 in combat is for example on Mai 12 1944.
