Re: Alfred Schreiber, 1st jet ace
Hi
He was born on 11th November 1923. Formally with ZG26. On 29th October 1944 he rammed a British Spitfire and baled-out of his Me262 unhurt near Nordhausen. He was killed on 26th November 1944 when he crashed his Me262 near Lechfeld flying for 9./JG 7. I believe by memory that the first "jet ace" was Franz Schall(by memory), in fact Schreiber only had four confirmed "kills" with the jet. Claims were:- 14th October 1943 2./ZG101 B-17 Mitbrunnwald 1634 hrs Nr.1 26th July 1944 1./Kdo.262 Mosquito u/c 2nd August 1944 1./Kdo.262 Spitfire u/c 5th September 1944 1./Kdo.262 Spitfire near Stuttgart 1441 hrs Nr.2 28th October 1944 1./Kdo.Now Spitfire 1310 hrs Nr.3 29th October 1944 P-38 Bramsche/Hopstein 1200 hrs Nr.4 29th October 1944 Spitfire near Nordheim 1540 hrs Nr.5 Schall confirmed his fifth "jet kill" on 8th November 1944 plus one unconfirmed. Kind Regards Johannes |
