Fw.190 (?) lost over Berlin, night of 30/31 Jan 1944.
Hi, I am hoping one of you may be able to point me in the right direction for a Luftwaffe loss at around 20:25 (GMT presumably?) on the night of 30/31 January 1944. 467 Squadron record the following in the Form 540:
"We have claimed a Fw.190 destroyed on this raid, being attacked by BRUCE SIMPSON’s crew, the Air Gunners 1355357 F/Sgt Thompson H and AUS426306 F/Sgt CAMPBELL CA being the men responsible." The Form 541 for this crew records: “Coming out of target Me.110 was crossing under, I banked to port and my gunners ordered corkscrew starboard which I did and brought all my guns to bear on the Me. Hits were observed and it was seen to turn on its back and disappear.” Can anyone help? Was a fighter shot down at around that time, if so what sort, and who was the pilot / unit etc? Any help gratefully received. My thanks in advance, mark |
