Re: Two Bf109s claimed by Mosquito at night
hi brian,
saw the thread-the pilot was my beloved father-who died last year 61 years after the event-he became a macindoe guinea pig, mum being one of the theatre sisters to macindoe. It was the last time he flew-and i only got the full story 3 weeks before he died-he was truly the bravest man I ever met. The germans did indeed credit him with 3-but the british one damaged and one destroyed, and didnt give him the third at all. ironically that would have made him an ace i think-butthats history as they say. If you have a mail address I can send you a couple of winzip files to look at-i know the crash site but it is about 6 square kilometres, at fassberg, or south, south west of fassberg. |
