Fw-190 loss, 13 Oct 44

[Eagle0025]

Hello all,

I am trying to help a friend, Bob Milliken, identify the Fw-190 kill he got while on a mission with the 429th FS, 474th FG on 13 Oct 44. Bob said they tangled with a group of Fw-190s SSW of Cologne in the mid to late morning that day. I figure I would ask the forum since I get really good answers here. I will provide additional information on this mission later, but at least I wanted to get the basic information out there. Bob said he also remembers flying over the wreck and said it had crashed in a courtyard right next to a house with the tail of the Fw-190 sticking straight up. Would appreciate any help. Even a listing of known Fw190 losses for 13 Oct 44 would be a good start. Many thanks in advance.

Cheers, Gary Koch (474FG Association Historian)
