Re: German night fighter top aces by NJG

Hi Michael

Units tended to re-designate from time to time.

But according to my own(dubious?) file on NJG200, all claims recorded between 21st August 1943 and 29th September 1943 the claimers are:-

Wolfgang Jank x 6
Josef Kociok x 6
Hans Hauschild x 3
Hubert Reichelt x 2
? Pies x 2
Gerhard Hauschild x 1
? Müller x 1

Total of twenty-one.

Also have for NJG 7

? Schmitt x 3
Ludger Krimphone x 2
Heinz Brunner x 1
? Appel x 1
? Heller x 1
? Kissinger x 1
Günter Scheidel x 1
Reinhold Schwemmer x 1
Joachim Vollhardt x 1
? Roppe x 1
? Nischler x 1

With NJG 10

Friedrich-Karl Müller x 5
Benno Gramlich x 2
Rudolf Schoenert x 2
Fritz E Krause x 2
Gustav Tham x 1
Egbert Jaacks x 1
Hans Durscheidt x 1
Harald Lange x 1
Friedrich Berger x 1
? Jung x 1
Heinz-Martin Hadeball

With KG 51 Johann Trenke had 9 and Eberhard Baier had 7. Trenke's bordfunker Josef Ottrin got 3 others.

Sorry about the lack of some forenames, hope somebody else can give you these.


Kind Regards

Johannes

Re: German night fighter top aces by NJG

Great !

I also forgot to include NJG102 top ace Dieter Kehrberg.
NJGr10: is it true what wikipedia says...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurt_Welter
...that Kurt Welter scored his five August 1944 kills in 1./NJGr10 ?
This would make him the joint top scorer of that unit.

Have a very nice Sunday,

Michael
