Fw. Karl Nowak, 9./JG 2

He was shot down in the sea by Spitfires and posted missing on June 10, 1942 while flying FW 190 A-2 W.Nr 0120 282 ‘Yellow 2 . I am trying to identify RAF unit responsible for his demise. From what I know he might have been killed by Spitfires of 41 Sq. in the morning (around 8 a.m) or in the combat with the Exeter wing covering Circus 9 in the afternoon (around 2 p.m.). Does anybody know the time of Nowak´s crash?

Thanks in advance

Jan

Although I do not have info to hand, NVM for 'Buck' Nowak (I have a number of photos of him) gives the time and I believe it was 41 Sqn who got him off the Isle of Wight

According to Prien he was shot down at 0805 hours in Pl.Qu.1173. Does this tally with what you have?
