Me 262 shot down over Schongau 15jan45

Any clue about the unit or pilot's name of the Me 262 claimed by 1st/Lt Robert P. Winks of 357th FG over Schongau on 15th January 1945?

Thanks in advance.

Chris

Thanks Michael.

Must stand for Sonderkommando der Oberkommando der Luftwaffe.

Is the place of loss correct?

What's this database your are talking about?

In 'The 357th Over Europe' it says Winks spotted the 262 doing a series of slow rolls at low altitude, he called the sighting in but no one else saw it. So he dived down from 15000 feet and got on the tail, and got in a good burst as the 262 approached an airfield, it burst into flames and crashed on the edge of the airfield.

Thanks Brian, but I already knew that.
That was the reason why I was looking for the unit of his victim.
