10 minutes after bombs away, at 1230 hours, at a point about 5 miles southeast of Dummer Lake, Germany, Lt Hoehn was observed to pull out to the left of the group formation with his #2 and #3 engines both feathered. He maintained his altitude but was dropping slowly behind the rest of the formation. When last seen, four P-39’s were accompanying him in his immediate vicinity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
