Re: Luftwaffe Combat Reports
What specific information are you looking for regarding this engagement.
I have Schmitter's Leistungsbuch however not sure if the entry will contain the information you are requesting. Regards Jeremy

hi, I wanted to see what Wilhelm Schmitter had recorded about this encounter. I know it was a chance encounter whilst both on reconnaissance but wondered what he recorded. The Lockheed Hudson was never found so wondered exactly what the circumstances and events were. thanks for any help!

Re: Luftwaffe Combat Reports
Karaluck,
Let me look through his entries in the Leistungsbuch. I know the victory is tabulated seperately as an Abschuss and the flight entry noted in the general content which noted individual flights. Regards Jeremy

Re: Luftwaffe Combat Reports
Great, thanks Jeremy.
A relative of mine was lost when the Lockheed Hudson was shot down; just interested really. Obviously anything Schmitter recorded or combat report would be of interest. Kara
