A new question about a JG 54 loss
Hi all,
A new question linked to JG 54 loss list. In the loss list by Gunter Rosipal, a Lt Günther Haase of I./JG 54 is listed as being killed on 29 January 1944 with no more details. The summary of Luftwaffe losses show no loss for JG 54 on 29 January but three (two missing in action and one destroyed without enemy action on non-operational flight) on the 30th for I./JG 54. And the Volksbund database has a Lt Günther Haase killed at "Ulla" also on 30 January 1944. There is a place called Ulla in Bielorussia, and it was in the operation area of I./JG 54 at the time: http://www.maplandia.com/belarus/vitsyebsk/ulla/ So my guess is that this JG 54 pilot was killed on the 30 rather than on the 29. Can anyone confirm this through a loss report or an NVM ? Thanks in advance Laurent |

Thanks Matti,
Do you have any data about the aircraft he flew and the reason of his death ? |

Thanks again
The WNr seems strange to me: should it not be 151499 or rather (15)1499 ? |

Re: A new question about a JG 54 loss
There were a whole bunch of 190A-5s with the 1501xxx. I have about 50 listed in my db from 1501068 through 1501560. I suspect many 4-digit WNr. around 1068 - 1560 probably should begin 1501xxx as well.
