Re: Me's vs Spits over North Africa: Who were those guys?
Hi Nick
I didn't see the original enquiry back in 2005 - not sure if I had joined TOCH!
However, should you not find anything conclusive in Chris' latest tome, I thought that I should mention that I helped Leo Nomis write his memoirs (of his time with the Israelis in 1948/49) and included some details of his RAF service (the book is "The Desert Hawks" published in 1998)
Leo had several combats with Bf109s whilst with 92 Squadron. On 7 January 1943, he claimed a Bf109 probable for the loss of two 92 Sqn Spits; next day, 8 January, he claimed a Bf109 shot down.
Hope this helps.
Cheers
Brian
