Andreas,
I have an account of a P-51D from the 356FG shooting down a Me-262 the 21st Feb. 1945. In many publications, the Me-262 is identified as Rhode's jet.
I think it wasn't Rohde.

First, as the fight took place some way east of Berlin and I/KG 51 was at this time at the Rheine/Hopsten aifield it could'n reach the presumed combat area and go back to his airfield.

Second, form a friend in Holland I have an in formation about Rhode being downed by british AA. More important he had acces to a copy of Rohde MIA document stating his take off after 17 00H. The P-51D downed its Messerchmitt around 15 30 H.

If it wasn't Rohde, who was it? Where to look for?

Regards,
Ironrat
