Re: S/Sgt. George C. Zambo (POW)

Hello Gabor,

in the book „Slovakian and Bulgarian Aces of WW2“ (Rajlich, Boshniakov and Mandjukov) is noted:
„… Only rotnik Gustav Lang, flying Wk-Nr 161713 'White 10', succeeded in shooting down an American aircraft. He attacked lone B-24H 41-28674, flown by 2Lt Lincoln E Artz, of the 758th Bombardment Squadron, 459th Bombardment Group. The nine crewmembers managed to bale out of the sticken bomber, which crashed at Most na Ostrove. Some were captured in Slovak territory and the rest on the Hungarian side of the border…“.

Most na Ostrove, former in German: Bruck an der Donau, today: Most pri Bratislave.

Regards
Leo
