Missing Information in JG-2 1944 (Mombeek)
While going through a book about a P-38 pilot (474FG), the author describes their first combat loss on May 7,1944.Fw190s of 2./JG-2 attacked a 474FG formation and downed 3 P-38s (T.Wood list). This combat is not mentioned in Eric Mombeeks's 1944 JG-2 book. Wonder why?

Hi
I probably supplied Erich with the JG 2's claims, so don't know why they are missing from his book. 8./JG 77(2) and 9./JG 77(1) also made claims. 2./JG 2's are:- 1006 hrs Maruader(not Lightning) 4300 metres by Oblt Detlef Großfuß at Charleville. 1015 hrs Lightning 2500 metres by Uffz Jürgen Otzen at Charleville. 1017 hrs Lightning 1300 metres by Großfuß at Charleville. anerk.nr 97-99. Kind Regards Johannes |

Missing Information in JG 2 1944 (Mombeek)
Hi guys
I have that the B-26 twin-engined bomber that Leutnant Detlef Grossfuss (20 victories, DK-G), Staffelkapitän of 2./JG 2, claimed that day was B-26B (41-31845) of 452 BS, 322 BG, USAAF flown by Lt Joseph Wright, 4 POW, 2 evaded. I hope this information is useful and that this isn't my final post on this wonderful forum! Horrido! Leo |
