Re: JG 77 victories
Yes, I wish I had collected the Prien books from the start.
...Anyone know of a good source for the back issues....?
Here are some JG 77 victory matches and queries that I have:
26.6.41:
Hugo Dahmer of 1/JG 77 in the far north downed an SB of 137 BAP and there were apparently two losses. Does anyone have the crew details and who claimed the second loss, if indeed anyone did?
On the same date Oblt. Setz and Uffz. Vogel of 4/JG 77 downed two SBs of 45 SBAP. There were two that spudded in at once and another that forcelanded in Russian territory. Does anyone have crew details?
27.6.41:
Walter Hoeckner of 6/JG 77 claimed an SB. Was this actually the Ar-2 of 132 SBAP lost in combat with fighters around 1412 ST? Crew of Lt. Yelovskich, Lt. Moskalenko and Rodionov
2.7.41:
Lasse und Riehl of 9/JG 77 claimed 3 x DB-3s. Were these actually from 22 DBAD, 4 DBAK? 2 DB-3Fs of 11 DBAP and 7 crews MIA. Another source says only 2 went down, they were SBs. Can anyone clarify...?
...More to follow...
