Ar234 question

[ianatheling]

Hi

Not air-to-air combat, but on the 19th March 1945 6./KG 76 were able to launch an operation with four Ar 234B led by Hauptmann Morich which attempted an attack on marshalling yards at Brussels. Soon allied aircraft came against them, but they were able use their speed to escape. Two of the Arados diverted to other targets. An ammunition train was hit at Charleroi, while Leutnant Croissant attacked the base of RAF’s 616 squadron at Melsbreok near Brussels with cluster bombs and did some damage to aircraft on the ground. One British loss was a Gloster Meteor jet.

PS, not totally convinced of spelling of names.
