Tenente Cuervo, 15.(Span)/JG 51, WIA 12 January 1943
On 12 January 1943 3a Teniente Carmelo Lacruz Cuervo of the third Spanish Azul Staffel, integrated in the Luftwaffe as 15.(Span)/JG 51, crashes during a scramble at Orel and is so seriously injured that he will be evacuated to Spain shortly thereafter.
In January 1943 all losses reported by this Staffel were Bf 109 F-2. Sources: Aéro-Journal n° 11 (Fleurance, France, February-March 2000) http://www.taringa.net/comunidades/2...Luftwaffe.html http://www.escuadrillasazules.es/ind...illa&Itemid=60 http://www.ww2.dk/oob/bestand/jagd/b15jg51.html Can someone confirm the type of aircraft involved, and provide the WNr and the percentage of damage ? A wounded pilot did not imply that the aircraft was lost, it could have been repaired. Thanks in advance Laurent |
