Re: Oblt Hans Schmid and ZG52
Johannes,
I got one of the dates wrong - the September claim was on the night 29/30 September 1942 and Boiten attributes the loss of Lancaster W4327 of 9 Squadron for this claim.
Boiten has the claim of 29 March at 1.04 hrs (I don't have my book with me to double check if I noted the date/time correctly) and credits it as Hampden AE246 of 420 Sqn. I've seen where Janks claim at 23.30 of the 28th and I'm a bit sceptical of this one as I believe he was in 5/NJG3 not 6/NJG3 - he was wounded in action twice with 5/NJG3 on 25/26 June 42 and 4 August 42 - a possible mystery Theo might answer where he got his information from.
The 18 April claim he credits as Wellington X3542 of 57 Squadron
The other claim of 29 April is a mystery to Theo as he cannot find any comparative loss.
Regards,
Craig...
