Re: Me 109 at Alamein
On 26.Oct. 1942 Ltn. Dr. Helmuth Fenzl was made a POW in this machine after combat with 112 Sq. Fenzl was with 9./JG 27, but the Bf 109F-4/Trop WNr.13136 was from 7./JG 27.

Re: Me 109 at Alamein
Which Mark of Kittyhawk's not really in my bailiwick; Robin Brown's Shark Squadron: The History of Squadron 112, RFC, RAF, 1917-1975 (Crecy, 1997) will likely provide details (I read it years ago, but do not own it.).

During October 1942, Kittyhawks III replaced the old Ia for the incoming offensive.
