Re: Anton Hackl
Great JG300 site Michael. Why didn't I even think of something so simple??
The info on the site confirms what I posted earlier from Lexikon der Wehrmacht - if you click on the links for the Gruppen you'll see I and III were Bf109, II was FW190, all from beginning to end. Unfortunately the site is silent on Stab. The Osprey Elite Units 20 Sturmgruppen book has considerable commentary up until December 1944, then very little because the concept was shelved due to the overwhelming opposition. It does say that the Sturmgruppen provided their own fighter cover, which explains the mix of FW90 and Bf109 - the FW to go after the bombers and the Bf to keep the fighters busy. If we knew what a/c Hackl shot down it might give a clue, but that would still leave us without confirmation. Back to the JG300 website, I had a bit of a laugh when I saw a loss on 24/12/44 - Anton Hack in a Bf109G14AS! Hackl wasn't there then ......... Cheers
