Fw Fritz Gilfert 12./JG 4

[Johannes]

Hi John

Personally I think it is a claim on 29th November 1943. Reason being he has scripted this like his other claims. Seems he came to grief himself and omits the flying time. Can't read the last word written, but "1 Boing Fortress in ....."

His hand-writing is appalling though, I suspect he was disappointed each Christmas when he asked Santa for a boomerang, and Santa read it as break both my legs !

Perhaps we need other eyes on this one.

Kind Regards

Johannes

Of interest hidden in a document sent to me by Nick Beale, it states that on 13 Apr 44, Gilfert was awarded the EKI for 19 missions more than four hours and seven less than four hours
