20 April 1945: N° 3 Sqdn vs Fw 190 D-9
The famous French ace Pierre Clostermann claimed 2 "Doras" near Lake Dummer, south of Hamburg, in the evening of 20 April 1945.
Has anyone any clue as to which LW unit they belonged to? Thanks. Chris |

If Clostermann said so, we have to take it at face value :-)

Hi Chris,
From AIR 40/2373: "1934-1956: 1 or 2 Gruppen of JG 26 operated, possibly in the Boitzenburg/Hagenow area. A/c set course at 1937. At 1952 Allied fighters were sighted below, and there was evidence of combat." Cheers, Andrew A. Air War Publications - www.airwarpublications.com/earticles |
