Victors over JG53 losses 15/09/40
Hi,
i'm searching of the victors over these losses in this day (maybe i have lack of info): JG 53 lost eight Bf 109s, with seven completely destroyed. Seven were not directly credited to RAF units. In air combat, I./JG 53 lost Unteroffizier*Schersand, killed in*Weknummer*6160. 1*Staffel*Bf 109,*Werknummer*5111 crash-landed in France, 15% destroyed and the pilot unhurt. 3*Staffel*lost*Oberleutnant*and*Staffelkapitän*Jul ius Haase, killed in*Werkummer*1590 jumped from his stricken 109E, but his chute failed to open. The same unit lost*Unteroffizier*Feldmann. Two more Bf 109s —*Werknummer*1174 and 5251 from III./JG 53 - were destroyed, but their pilots were unhurt. One was rescued from the Channel 72 Sqn? 92 Sqn? 41Sqd? 73 Sqd? maybe was John Wolferstan Villa of the 72 Sqn involved?.... many thanks, regards
