Re: Searching for Claim Report Lt. Futch, 50th FG.

I see Frank answered before I got my reply sent. Shoots down the Victory Credit Board possibility. The mission report, however, clearly shows it to be a FW 190 claimed.

Re: Searching for Claim Report Lt. Futch, 50th FG.

I just pulled up the PDF file for B0145 to check. OpRep A No. 152. Time up 1517, time down 1728. It does indeed state that Futch claimed a FW-190, which crashed after the pilot bailed out. I have corrected my database accordingly.

Thanks for the correction.

Enjoy!

Frank.

Gentleman,

no Fw 190 was lost on that day in the southwestern Corner of Germany. Bf 109 of JG 53 had Dogfights with P-47 of 358th Fighter Group and Bf 109 of JG 76 had Dogfights with Spitfires of GC 2/7 - Forces Aériennes Françaises Libres. The only hit who match is the Bf 109 of NAGr. 13. All other crashes don`t fit.

Best regards

Fred
