Horst Geyer claims Mosquito

[Amanda]

Thank you so much for all your replies - very informative.
I am hoping to discover which squadron the mosquito was from - though this may be like looking for a needle in a haystack. If anything comes to light, I shall return and post.

The copy of Horst's report is in the Mosquito Air Association archives, sent in as a contribution (sadly, no author name on report). The MAA archive is now under the care of the Second World War Experience Centre in Yorkshire.

Hi Dan

With JG 50 they claimed only one Mosquito by Hermann Graf on 13th May 1943, but this was unconfirmed. All other JG 50 claims were over B-17's thirteen in all(three unconfirmed, all by Graf) ans a "Viermot"...also unconfirmed, again by Graf

With JG 25, sorry a senior moment, that should read ekdo.25 again just the one. A Ventura, a Beaufighter, a P-47, a B-24 and twenty-three B-17's(one of which was unconfirmed.

With JG 25 itself only two claims in total a Lightning(Ihlefeld) and a B-17.(Zimacker).

Hope that helps

Johannes
