November 10,1942 - II/JG-53 - Ofw. Herbert Rollwage
On November 10,1942 Ofw Herbert Rollwage, 5./JG-53 while flying Bf-109G-2 , WN 10500, made a belly landing at Koufonisia, Crete after "Luftkampf".
The Bf109G incurred 30% and Ofw. Rollwage was lightly wounded. I can find no corresponding RAF claims against a Bf109 on this date? Any speculations on what air combat Ofw Rollwage was involved in? |

Re: November 10,1942 - II/JG-53 - Ofw. Herbert Rollwage
Hi,
No answer, but more details on this mission from a X. Fliegerkorps report: seven Bf 109s of 5./J.G. 53 scrambled from Kastelli against aircraft in the Heraklion direction. Hits were claimed on British aircraft (not sure if singular or plural). One aircraft force-landed at Koufonisia. Cheers, Andrew A. Air War Publications - www.airwarpublications.com/earticles |
