Re: The II./JG 300 on 27 July, 1944
Hi Csaba
As described in our book "Jagdgeschwader 300 - a chronicle of a fighter Geschwader in the battle for Germany"(ISBN 0-9761034-0-0 Eagle Editions, 2005), II./JG 300 clashed with B-24s between Pàpa and Budapest on 27 July 1944. Konrad Bauer kills (claimed in the vicinity of Mör between 10.00 and 10.01) were all confirmed on 27.12.1944. This would signify that corresponding B-24 remains were found by the germans. As far as we know, the claim filed by Gefreiter Karl-Heinz Schöffmann of 3. Staffel (B-24, north of Platensee, 10.00 - 6500 m) remains as VNE-ASM, so not officially confirmed. On that day, the Sturmgruppe pilots obviously "overclaimed" during the attack of the B-24 boxes, as we explain in our footnote on page 257. All the best Jean-Yves Lorant |
