6 July 1944 - 78th FG versus JG 2
Hi guys
Many thanks to both of you for your information regarding the encounter of these two units. I have virtually zero loss list data as concerns JG 2 for the first part of 1944 so this was extremely useful. I should add that it also appears that III./JG 54 was involved in this engagement as JG 2 did not file any claims in the area for what I am aware of yet the 78th FG lost one fighter and its pilot at around 6:15 near Rambouillet. However, Leutnant Alfred Gross of 8./JG 54 did record one claim for a P-47 fighter at 6:38 northeast of Paris and he was the only German pilot that made a claim at this time and area for what I am aware of. It also appears that III./JG 54 did not suffer any losses in this engagement. Please take care both of you and thanks.
Horrido!
Leo
