Re: 29 may 1944, 15 AF raid to Austria - need help.

Hi Evgeny,

thank you for reply.

Apparently only 9 B24 were shot down by german fighters.
Bombers losses:

B17G 42-31857 97BG (340BS) target Wollersdorf - shot down 10:01 off the target by Flak
B17G 42-97580 301BG (353BS) target Wollersdorf - en route to target engine caught fire and crashed @ 8:49 NE Lubjana
B17F 42-30347 301BG (419BS) target Wollersdorf - before reaching the target flame appared from 1engine. Left formation @ 9:25 S Lunz
B24H 41-28797 485BG (829BS) target Atzgersdorf - damaged by Flak @ 10:40 off the target, crashed @ 12:30 near Zara
B24H 42-52676 485BG (831BS) target Atzgersdorf - a minute after dropped bombs was struck by Flak @ 10:48 N Nageck
B24H 42-52677 484BG (827BS) target Wiener Neustadt - hit by Flak just after bombs away over the target @ 10:33, left the formation
B24H 41-28780 484BG (824BS) target Wiener Neustadt - hit by Flak over the target @ 10:30
B24D 42-41176 376BG (513BS) target Wiener Neustadt - shot down a few minutes before the target by Me-109s @ 10:05 Altenmarkt
B24H 42-95338 376BG (515BS) target Wiener Neustadt - shot down by Flak @ 10:04 N Wiener Neustadt
B24J 42-73416 98BG (344BS) target Wiener Neustadt - shot down @ 10:05 over the target area by Fighters
B24H 41-28825 98BG (415BS) target Wiener Neustadt - shot down @ 10:05 NW Wiener Neustadt by a rocket fired by JU88s
B24H 42-52117 449BG (719BS) target Wiener Neustadt - attacked by Fighters just before reaching the IP @ 9:57
B24H 42-52396 449BG (717BS) target Wiener Neustadt - attacked by 3/5 Me 110s before bombing run @ 10:08 NW Wiener Neustadt
B24H 42-52589 465BG (783BS) target Liesing - hit by Flak @ 10:31 Liesing. left the formation
B24H 42-95336 464BG (779BS) target Atzgersdorf - shot down by Flak @ 10:30 over the target. Last seen near Baden
B24H 41-28969 464BG (776BS) target Atzgersdorf - damaged by Flak, shot down by Fighters @ 12:00 S Graas
B24H 41-28748 464BG (777BS) target Atzgersdorf - shot down by Fighters near Sopron
B24G 42-78257 464BG (777BS) target Atzgersdorf - shot down by Me-109s @ 11:45 near Sopron
B24H 42-52540 464BG (776BS) target Atzgersdorf - crippled by Flak, shot down by Fighters @ 11:52 Jelasinovci

I think that the JG3 claims were against the Eighth Air Force.
But II./JG77 claimed 11 B24 & 1 B24 e.V. @ 11:42-12:20 over the Balkans, probably against the 464BG.

Hope this helps.
Best regards

Marco
