Re: Sword Beach D-Day
Leon,
Thanks for the reprise of those 2004 postings; great information for me. I don't recall seeing them before. Is there any way I can access the archive of the "old" forum? Also did Jim P. provide any other of Priller's Werke Nummer for claims before and after the ones sited? Regards, Tom |

When Jim originally posted his message, the old forum gave him fits because it kept truncating the text for those two entries. He was eventually able to post the missing text by using a different format. I've incorporated his additions in the above text, but it's possible that I misinterpreted his comments, so please feel free to correct any mistakes. Leon Venter |

Re: Sword Beach D-Day
Leon,
Thanks for the data filled post on Priller’s Fw-190s! You’ve mentioned on several occaisions, that you have archived much of the old forum and will have it up for research purposes. I’m sure that many of us here –like me- are waiting with baited breath for that happy day. Any update on when this might be up and running? Many thanks, Rob Romero |

Re: Sword Beach D-Day
Well, I now know that the attack witnessed by my relative happened around noon, so that means he wasn't attacked by a famous air ace... Still he's pleased that a long-standing mystery has finally been solved. Thanks to everyone that contributed.

Re: Sword Beach D-Day
Regarding Jim's listing, anything new came up during past two years? I'm especially interested in Priller's Fw 190 A-8.
