Anton Hackl - 4 February 1943
Hello guys
Many thanks to all who have posted here. I originally posted about Hackl being shot down and received a bevy of information about this particular air battle! Robert is correct, there are two additional claims by Oberleutnant Herbert Puschmann (B-17) and Unteroffizier Hans-Günther Koch (P-38) of 6./JG 51 listed in Wood's claims file. Thus, at least a total of three B-17 bombers and eight P-38 fighters were claimed that day. If one bomber and six fighters were lost then excellent accuracy on the part of the Luftwaffe pilots with the exception of the bomber claims. Many thanks to Stig and Robert for this clarification and their input. Stig, very good and thoughtful observation regarding what the bomber gunners had to go through. Horrido! Leo
