Re: 6./JG 300

Hi Dirk

On 5 January 1944, Lt. Anton Ducke was a pilot of 3. Staffel/JG 300 (also I Gruppe) and was never appointed as "Staffelkapitän of 6./JG 300". In what book have you found such a big mistake? As you wrote, Ducke was unhurt.

He was Staffelkapitän of 3./JG 300 at the time of his death, in the night of 19/20 february 1944. (Bf 109 G-6 WNr 20278 Gelbe 4, crash on take-off for a combat mission shortly afer 02:40 west Jüberbog-Waldlager, reason unknown).

Best regards
Jean-Yves Lorant
