III./JG 54 24 Jul 1941
On the 24 Jul 1941 at 19:45 - 20:00 in the area of Porkhova III./JG 54 and Stab/JG 54 intercepted a group of Soviet bombers. My question is about the following that I found in Prien’s JFV 6/II on page 264, it has Uffz. Hans Kupko 8 Staffel shooting down an I-18 (2) at 17:20. On page 270 it lists Uffz. Herbert Kupko of 8./JG 54 Notlandung, Ort unbekannt, 100% Bf 109 F-2. Is this the same man? And if so which is his real name?
During the Soviet bomber raid there is mention of the bomber gunners shooting down a Me-109. Trying to determine if this occurred at the time of the dogfight or during the bomber raid. I checked “Kracker” but no Kupko is listed there. On page 270 it has a (v) which I understand means missing.
