Robert J. Booth, 359th Fighter Group

Would anyone have a copy of his combat report of 30 January 1944? I was sent a copy taken from the 369th Fighter Squadron records, but it is very, very tough to read. I can make out about 80% but a couple lines have several gaps I cannot decipher. He claimed a Me 109 destroyed near Lingen on this date. Thanks for any help you may give.

Hi Kent. Don't know if this is any use but Booth's account is here ( bottom of the page).

https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic...on-gun-camera/

( on the gun camera film ( beginning Stewart 355FG 11/4/44) Booth's 109 is at 3.34.36). Great aerobatics.


Regards
Nick

Nick,

That's the report--I was able to fill in the few blanks I had so, yes, it was a very great help! Thanks for sharing that.
