Re: Obfw Robert Roller and Shoot Luke

Hello all,

On 18 Oct 43 II./JG 3 took off to intercept the B-24 diversion formation. Only a part of 6./JG 3, led by Staffelkapitän Hauptmann Paul Stolte, was able to make contact with the USA formation. Roller did indeed attack the B-24 formation that day; on the return route he made a belly landing, due to fuel shortage, possibly at Terschelling. I cannot confirm if Roller or Hoyer claimed a B-24 that day.

@ JoeHackett, you can contact me off board.

Best regards,
Rob
