Re: Oberleutnant Dieter Meister

Dear Tereza (thank you, but I already knew the information from De Zeng and other's excellent site)

LEO, yes...do need to check my 2nd TAF books (not at hand now) to see if there were some Intruding Mossies around Frankfurt that day...

This is what I matched so far...we do have two interesting SINGLE claims by airmen from 20th FG and 361st FG....maybe FRANK OLINYK can help us onto the unknown claims???

Does anyone do have the "JG 2 Richtofen" books by Eric Monbeek? Were there further losses recorded by JG 2 onto the 21st November 1944, or was Oblt Dieter Meister the single loss???
