Kirkenes/Petsamo 31/7/41 - German claims

[Brian]

Hi guys

As some of you may not have seen my earlier request for details of German claims during the Kirkenes/Petsamo raids of 31 July 1941, I would appreciate any help as these do not appear in Tony Woods' lists.

Bf109s from I/JG77 apparently claimed 13 Albacores, 2 Skuas, 3 Hurricanes and one Russian aircraft.

Bf110s from 13(Z)/JG5 apparently claimed 5 Swordfish/Albacores

Ju87s from IV/LG1 apparently claimed 5 Swordfish

Flak claimed 4/5.

Apart from a claim for an Albacore destroyed by Hptm Schlossstein of 13(Z)/JG5, I DO NOT know the identities of any of the other claimants.

I am mystified as to why I am unable to find the names of the German pilots, so hopefully one of our experts can help me, please.

Also, how many types of each of the defending force participated?

Thanks in advance
Brian

PS: I have now established that Ltn Felix-Maria Brandis of 1(Z)/JG77 claimed two Albacore while flying Bf110 LN+AR with Fw Herbert Baus as his AG.

Has anyone a copy of Jochen Prien's JG77 history to establish the identities of the claimants?

Cheers
Brian
