Hans-Jörg Merkle
Has somebody informations about Fw. Hans-Jörg Merkle, 30-victory-ace of 1./JG.52...especially about his last fight. There is a possibility that he was KIA in a taran attack by soviet female ace Litvyak.
See my posting on Allied and Soviet Air Forces forum.

Regards

Monaco

Re: Hans-Jörg Merkle
Monaco,

I am searching this incident as well. The area is correct but circumstances and time doesn´t match with crash of Litviyak.

Re: Hans-Jörg Merkle
Hello Jan,
did you have the exact time when Litvyak was lost? Also the source would be of value. Somewhere I read she shot down a german ace in er last combat.

regards
