[dkodko]

The day 28 april 1944 an american P38 F recon was shot down at 30 km south of Bologna-Italy, the MACR is 4195 .
I'm looking for German squadron which was committed to the defense of this Bologna are on that date.
Thanks Stefano

Look at this page: http://lesbutler.co.uk/claims/tonywood.htm

You will find a document with German victory claims for "Reich, West and Südfront, Jan to Apr 1944. Vol. I"

Nick and Kaki,thank you very much for your support!
Probably he is the Luftwaffe pilot that I was looking for, coincides date, aircraft type P38, the area SW Bologna and time of the fall 12,10.
I searched on the web for more information about Ltn. Günther Stark but I have not found anything yet !
If you can give me some advice also for this search I'd be grateful.
Ciao Stefano
