August Lambert II./SG 2

[Johannes]

Hi Andrey

Generally the micro films record each Staffel's claims until late July 1942 when they generally started being entered on two daily claims sheets one East one West, however none of the SG units Staffel claims sheets have survived, moreover they didn't start their daily claims until very late, plus there are a huge number missing right at the time they started making large numbers of claims, this is proved by matching Hermann Buchner's abschüße list against the daily micro film sheets, also I have a early abschüßmeldung sheet listing Alfred Mischke's first twenty claims, something that would have been done also for Lambert........but seemingly has not come to light yet, so in truth as far as I know nobody knows really when his first claim was. I suspect there is or was a schwarm book recording these guys claims as they all flew cover for the rest of the Staffel together, but as Buchner(the only survivor) didn't seem to have it, I would say it(if it ever existed) is lost.

Kind Regards

Johannes
