Re: 16-17/6/44 night fighters over England

Hi BC,
A very fine piece of research. A mix-up of dates is not uncommon in German documents. My speculation is that the Feldwehbel responsible for the KTB may stack a few days work and then catch up, hence the wrong date. And far too often, when we examine a night claim we focus on BC, and forget the USAAF night ops. In another thread we have a discussion related to 4 B-24 night claims on 8 JAN 1945, I'm sure they were Lancasters. But - a kill is a kill.
