Re: Accuracy on certain JG5 claims
26.11.42: Lt Friedrich Lüdecke, 6/JG 5
08.12.42: Lt Friedrich Lüdecke, 6/JG 5, südlich Fedosero Source: Jochen Prien et al: Die Jagdfliegerverbände der Deutschen Luftwaffe 1934 bis 1945, part 9, volume III, page 430 the other combat-victors are noted as N N in the same book. Perhaps the original documents from Luftflotte 5 can provide the missing names? |

Re: Accuracy on certain JG5 claims
Dr Prien credits the Abschüsse to II/JG 5, not to a specific Staffel.
