III./JG54 losses_19 May 1944

Hello,
it is written in J.Priens "Jagdfl.Verb. ..."; part 13/1 at page 467, that III./JG54 has lost 3 Fw190 in an aerial combat with US-fighters on the 19th of May 1944, in all 2 pilots dead, 4 pilots wounded.
One Fw190: emergency landing.
Two Fw190: damage without enemy action.


I have:

Fw190 A-8; WNr. 730317; 8./JG54; Ofw. Schankelberg, Alfred; wounded
Fw190 A-8; WNr. 680183; 8./JG54; Fw. Kriegel, Gerhard; missing (??)

Has somebody further informations for the third Fw190, shot down?

And for the other fighters?


Regards,
digedag1

Re: III./JG54 losses_19 May 1944

Hello,
Can anyone help with the correct losses of III./JG 54 on 19.05.44 and 24.05.44 ? In JFV 13/V Lt. Hoffmann and Uffz. Uecker are mentioned on both dates. 24.05.44 seems to be correct for both. I found Lt. Reinhold Hoffmann in the VDK database and Uffz. Walter Hermann Uecker in the death card database. On Uecker's card however is marked in red "Verbludung" (Tot aufgefunden) so I'm still wondering if he was lost on the 19th and found dead on the 24th.
In JFV/I however the text and the loss tables are not corresponding on both dates.

Fw. Kriegel (mia) and Ofhr. Schenkelberg (wia) on 19.05.44 seem to be correct.
In the Rosipal list Ofhr. Artzfeld (wia) and Uffz. Schönwald (wia) are dated 19.05. A mix up of dates ?


Thanks in advance,
Patrick
