Re: He 219 found in Denmark !!!
Hi Guys thanks for the answers and photos the 'Airwar Over Denmark ' just says 'The rear gunner of the ''Leo 45'' fired back and hit White 1 in the starboard mainplane which caught fire, Shirreff managed to put out the fire by using up all his ammo'' ( from combat report ?). The book Fighter Squadron mentions the attack and damaging of one ''Leo 45'' and the shooting down of another, it reports the loss of F/L Bird to a Bf109, and F/Sgt Warren as missing but does not mention the damage to Shirreff's aircraft which returned. As Junker says the damage to the Mustang could hve been debris, hopefully an identity for this 219 can be found and the reason for the MG15 magazine,
Regards Brian Bines |
