    German Ace KIA August 29, 1944

    I'm sure you have read Loy Dickinson and Wiliam Tune's book about the mission. In the book he mentions the German losses for the battle. He says there was a German Ace killed that day. The plane crashed in a barn and the man was wearing a medal that denotes 36 kills. I've been trying to find out who this man is and maybe you know or the museum knows.
    thanks, Brandon

    Brandon, this info is based on Czech sources but it´s not true. This pilot bailed out and survived.
