Re: Anton Hackl

Thanks for the detailed info on the references Nick.
Using that info I checked my copies of Weal's book and Schiffer's Luftwaffe Aces vol1.
The FW190/Bf109 info relates to Hackl's time with JG11 in 1944. The FW190 photo is dated April 11 1944, but whether the date was simply "guessed" by counting the kill markings and then checking the date on which Hackl had that number, I can't say.
Unfortunately, the Bf109G-6 pic has no date. Given it shows 132 kills, that would suggest January 1944, but there's nothing to confirm this.
