Re: 6 Dec 44 ground attack missions by JG 4

Hi

My friend Bernd Barbas knew Heinz-Otto Berg who flew for JG4 sometime after April 1944, who claims JG4 were flying suicide missions i.e no munitions just fly into the enemy, also(contradictory) claimed that he had schragenmusik fitted to his Me109! even more bizarre is that he attacked a US convoy by flying upsidedown to use this weapon!!! Don't know exactly when this was, I would should think end of 1944 or even more likely 1945. Bernd thought Berg was unreliable as a witness.......Berg also claimed that he shot down over forty aircraft during the war, yet I can find only eight that were confirmed.

Regards

Johannes
