Re: August Lambert II./SG 2

Hi Chris,

The book series mention only 14 of his claims being listed on the mircofilms (Tony Wood and all that...) and that his total was actually 103. They list about 50 claims in total for him.

If it helps any, the only claims of his that I can remotely match to Soviet losses are as follows:

Airacobra 26.3.44/1325. Actually a Yak from 274 IAP. Two losses (so likely a claim missing): 1043 of Lt. Stepochkin (returned in 4.44) and 0498 of Ml. Lt. Bakhramov baled out POW and only returned after the liberation of Sevastopol in May 1944. Thanks to http://www.yogysoft.de/Black_Friday_3IAK.htm for that one

19.4.44 Three claims for Pe-2s. 135 GBAP, 3 losses including unit CO, Kapitan Yevgeniy Vishnyakov KIA. BELIEVED to have been by Lambert
I think that came from Bergstroem's Bagration to Berlin or such.

Nick
