Which Units clashed with US. 4th FG in April 8. 1944?
AFAI, on April 8,19 44, the 4th FG got 32 victories and suffered only 4 losts. From germany record list in Tonny wood's web site, some units had suffered serious losess.
III./JG54 , III./JG11, I./JG5 and III./JG3 lost 10, 11, 6, 5 planes respectively. The total lossses is about 78.
The losses included some aces such as Josef Zwernemann(128kills) and Ernst Maack (8 kills).
This is the very limited information I have.
Does anyone konw more information about which units had clashed with US 4th fighter group? I am surprised the luftwaffe's pilots should not be beaten so badly prior to D-days.
Thank you very much in advance.
