Julius Meimburg
Hi guys

Just out of curiosity. I've read that Julius Meimberg shot down an RAF Dakota on 24 September 1944, one that had stayed off course over Germany.
Apparently three crew and 20 soldiers killed.

Perhaps its a well-known incident and has been covered before, but out of my sphere of normal interest.

Cheers
Brian

The incident is described in detail also in Julius Meimberg´s memoirs - see Meimberg 2002: Feindberührung.
