B-17 raid Frankfurt, 29 January 1944 - Luftwaffe and Allied Air Forces Discussion Forum

For what is worth, the only Fw 190 units with losses are II./JG 26 and III./JG 2. I need to check into Caldwell and Mombeeck unit diaries if I can get more clues.

I wish they were somehow republished because the time of claim is really the data missing in most publications.

I didn't find anything in a quick read through Caldwell; unfortunately I don't (yet) have Mombeeck's 1944 volume.

Agreed 100%!

I've got 3 of his Victory Lists and I'd be willing to consider trading a kidney for the others.
