Re: Ernst Erich Hirschfeld's FW 190A-8

Nice work.

This does provide a listing closer to the 27 victories than the link I found.

I also found it interesting that 1/Lt James McElroy is listed as a possible victor in Hirschfeld's case.

Another possiblity is that he fell to the guns of tail gunner SSgt Arthur Kemp of the 351st Bomb Group who was credited with a FW 190 near Erfurt on the same date - July 28th, 1944.

The pilot of the FW 190 was seen to bail out but no parachute was observed to open.

Sounds very similar to Hirschfeld's demise
