Night-fighter losses on 1/2 January 1944
Hello everyone,
I was hoping that my fellow readers of this terrific forum may provide some input to a few questions I have. On the night of 1/2 January 1944 the RAF undertook a raid on Berlin. The Germans lost 15 aircraft that night. 4 fell victim to British aircraft with a further 11 losses due to poor weather. How was the morale in the Luftwaffe night-fighter crews at this time? Also, were the Luftwaffe aircrew lost this night experienced (eg. had completed a full flying training syllabus and not a reduced flight hour program, been flying night-fighters for an extended period, etc.), particularly those lost due to the poor weather conditions? Thank you for your time. Pete A. |
