    Hallo Alex,
    thanks for the information. Now I have a second question. I hope you could help me.
    Could you inform about the victories of the US-Fighters, or the German Fighter losses on that day?
    And where did the German Fighters crashed?

    Alex,
    Thanks for the information, but now I search the names of the German pilots which were shot down and the
    crash sites.
