Re: Need confirmation of some pilots in 4./JG 51 in early 1940
Larry, i have the following information if it is of use for your list.
18.5.40 Fw Willi Gasthaus 4/JG51 claimed a Morane MS 406 sht dn 1st kill. So obviously on 4/JG51 strength, prior to BoB. 5.7.40 Lt Erich Hohagen 4/JG51 Sht dn a Spitfire North of Hythe for his 1st kill. Again shows he was on the Staffel rosta at this time. Best regs, Steve. Ps. Hope to hear more on this thread! |

Re: Need confirmation of some pilots in 4./JG 51 in early 1940
Good afternoon Larry, i was wondering whether you managed to establish whether the pilots you were seeking, were with 4/JG51 during the time scale you were seeking.
Im quite sure most of 4/JG51's a/c were probably issued new when this unit was formed in November 1939, as to pilots on strength during this period i have scant information. After nearly 7 years since you last posted i would be interested to hear of any updates? Best regs, Steve. |
