Re: 7 Dec. 1944 loss
Guten Abend Spanferkel !
There were no Jabo or fighter activities that day by U.S. AAF in the area due to bad weather. 9th AF had just 10 fighters in the air and none was lost. 8th AF had none . 2nd TAF has one loss in the Dordrecht/Netherlands area. Your needle in the haystack may probably be in error in the date. When the event would have had happened on December 17th, you would find a hell of air-battles in the area and a considerable number of U.S. losses between Blankenheim and Schmidheim. Best regards ! Horst Weber

Re: 7 Dec. 1944 loss
Thanks Horst,
Your comment about the date being a mistake may very well be the case and as you point out on the 17th of Dec. and beyond the air activity was more intense. The document I am referencing is quite clear as to the date and typed as well although since it is from the Divisional commander vs. a witness to the action I could see a discrepancy in date being possible. I'll search more to make sure no other info. exists. Thanks again. Jeremy
