5./JG 77 - looking for a pilot's name
Gentlemen,
can anyone tell me the christian name of Uffz. Rohde, a fighter pilot in 5./JG 77 in 1943 ? He scored several aerial victories and was himself shot down at least once in 1943 and yet none of the documents I have at my disposal shows his christian name - so ? And while we're at it: Could anyone tell me what would be the US equivalent to the ordinary German 50 kg explosive bomb ? In several documents concerning A-20, B-25 and B-26 attacks on airfields in Sicily mention is made of fragmentation and "50 kg" bombs. So what would they have been ? Many thanks in advance and Regards Jochen Prien |
