Re: P-51 "Old Crow" and 8./JG 1 - a little discovery

Tom Beemer was shot down on 2/25/1944 and indeed broke both legs. I met Tom back in 1993.

Alfred Boyle shot down a Bf 109 on 2/12/1944 but his a/c was hit by debris. Boyle wa severly injured, lost his arm and was repatriated.

I think Boyle might have shot down Uffz. Feier of III./JG 1, but that is not 100% certain.
