Colonel Robert Hall
Hi All
SDASM has recently published some photos from Col Robert Hall's collection.
They are all sub-tagged
Colonel Robert Hall was assigned to the 62 Squadron of the famous 56 FG at Boxted Air Base in England during WWII and was credited with the destruction of two enemy aircraft (Junkers Ju- 188 bombers). He flew 55 combat missions with a total of 310 combat hours in WWII and the Korean War.
I am unable to find this man in Frank Olynyk's USAAF credits for the destruction of enemy aircraft, victory list no.5
I have come across two Robert Hall in the Schiffer book 'Beware the Thunderbolt!' by David McLaren. Both these Halls are credited with one damaged each (none of these claims are listed by Frank Olynyk). Presumably it is the individual listed as Major Robert W. Hall and not the 2nd Lt Robert S Hall I am after. However we are still far short of the two claimed Ju 188.
I then have to assume the above claims refer to air-to-ground kills and not air-air. Could anyone confirm or correct my assumptions?
Cheers
Stig
