Re: Victory claim by Bf 109G pilot over Bulgaria on 10 September 1944?
Dear Denes,
victim of Maj. J. Gamringer (NSGr.4) was identified as Letov Š-328 (Š 328.407) from Slovakian insurgent forces (during Slovak National Uprising) from airfield Mokrad.
Crew rtk. Stefan Zuber and lt. Anton Strycek were injured, aeroplane crashlanded near Gerlachov (aprox. 7 km NW from Poprad, Slovakia).
Other sources differs in one or two days, but Letov was clearly shot down by two Ju-87.
