Operation Bodenplatte Y-29 Asche, Belgium
During Operation Bodenplatte at Y-29 Ashe, Belgium Jan 1, 1945 the 352nd FG was attacked which is now known as the battle for News Years Day! There forward airfield was attacked by Fw 190s and Bf 109s. William Whisner destroyed 2 Fw 190s and 2 Bf 109s that day. The last Bf 109 he destroyed was going head to head right right above his airfield as all the ground crew watched. Does anyone know which JG unit was flying the Bf 109s he destroyed? What Gruppe, staffel etc. This is for a remarque on Trudgian's "The Battle for News Years Day" and I am trying to get the markings correct on the last Bf 109 that Whisner destroyed that day?
Thanks, |
