JG26 at Leningrad Mar 1943
Does anyone have the correct PQ number for the Pe-2 claim of Hptm Walter Hoeckner 1./JG26 for the 24Mar43. On Tony Woods list its 10281 which is to far east so I suspect the 10 is a mistype for 00281 but Don Caldwell's book on JG26 has 00261 which is a little to far off but the 00281 would be in the area. Ofw. Waldemar Soeffing 1/JG26 filed a Pe-2 at 00412. The times are one minute in difference. The Pe-2 crew wasn't captured or killed so the witness statement of coming down in Russian lines fits 00281.

Re: JG26 at Leningrad Mar 1943
Thanks Johannes. After taking a closer look at Priens PQ map it's possible that either Pe-2 crew could have came down in the Russian lines but there was only one loss that day so one could have only been damaged. I believe that Hoeckner's claim might have been closer to Sablino at the time of the 34 GBAP Pe-2 going down.
