Re: Jets over Italy 1944-45
Hello Douglas,
Kommando Sommer flew several recce missions with three Arado 234 B from the base Campoformido near Udine from 16. March 1945 until probably 24. April 1945 in the Mediteranean area. Codes were T9+DH (Wk.Nr. 140142), T9+EH (wk.Nr. 140344) and T9+FH. Pilots were Erich Sommer, Leutnant Gniesmer and Werner Arnold. T9+DH was shot down on 11. April by P-51 of 52nd Fighter Group, Leutnant Gniesmer died of wounds two days later. T9+EH crash landed in Campoformido on 20.April and was destroyed, pilot Erich Sommer survived without injuries. Hope this helps Robert |
