Re: ID of Ju 88 lost on 18th August 1944 near Le Puy

Hello Jim.

I was not aware of those two losses from LG 1, since I do not have Taghon's work/book. THANK YOU for sharing those with us.

I guess (but may be wrong) that those two LG 1 losses were more related to Allied night-fighters over the Invasion Front as the book do says.

Am looking for a DAYLIGHT loss for a Luftwaffe machine on the South / South-East part of France. This machine was claimed by a 111th TRS (flying probably a P-51C or F-6A Mustang) airman near "Le Puy", which I assumed was near Saint-Etienne.

There could be, however "problems in identifying the Luftwaffe machine" which was claimed destroyed (exploded in mid air) as a Ju 88. It may also be a former "French Air Force" twin-engined machine.

Any help in ID this claim is most welcomed.

Adriano
