Re: Hptm. Joachim Muncheberg - Stab./JG 51

What is behind words "shot down"? (abgeschossen)

If a fighter plane is damaged, belly landed, pilot is safe and later the a/c is repaired - I can imagine that this event (especially if it happened twice and to a famous guy) could be described as shooting down.
