Kurt Hammel,Gunther Scholz of JG5

Hi Guys

I checked that for 6th February 1942 and it certainly is on the microfilm. In fact I worked-out a rough crash-site are of 50km West of Ozero.
But questionable is the claim for 24th March 1942.
Known are the first twenty-seven confirmed claims, the last two would be those in August 1942 and August 1943, but as those previous to these are only on the subsidiary A.S.M/V.N.E microfilm there could well be some missing to us. Therefore personally I am numbering those with JG 54 Nr.2-Nr.27, thereafter no numbering, and excluding that from 24th March 1942. I am reducing Scholz's total to at least Thirty-two!

Kind Regards

Johannes
