Pease and Mell, the available Luftwaffe records and those for 1./JG 2 indicate:


26.09.43 Fw. Siegfried Lemke 1./JG 2 Mustang I £ TC-7.3: 0-5 m. [Elbeuf 060° S.E. Rouen] 12.48 Film C. 2031/II Anerk: Nr. -


26.09.43 Uffz. Wilhelm Peukert 1./JG 2 Mustang I £ TC-5: 0-5 m. [S. St. Étienne-du-Rouvray] 12.50 Film C. 2031/II Anerk: Nr. -


Based off the crash sites, Pease was shot down by Lemke and Mell by Peukert.



No other claims for Mustangs by 1. /JG 2 that day.
