Luftwaffe Gun Cam Footage

[nedkelly1973]

Hi everyone,

Is there a person/company/museum/institution that you can buy copys of Geramn gun cam footage if you know the number of the tape you are after?

I'm starting to study a fighter pilot who got 3 victories in late 44 with JG 300 and I thought that it would be a good addition to the paperwork!

the film is C.2027 if that helps anybody.

I'm sorry if this is in the wrong area-I wasn't sure where to put it.

thanks

Glenn.

Glenn,

I may be able to answer your question, but can you tell where you got the "C.2027" citation?

If at NARA, I'll post the full citation so you can order it directly.

Hi Mike,

I got it of a website www.cieldegloire.com/unites.php

I think its a spanish website.

the full information for the 3 I'm after is

c.2027/II Anerk:Nr 6

c.2027/II vne:asm 26.7.44

c.2027/II vne:asm 27.7.44

I have no idea if this is accurate I'm just repeating from the website

thanks

Glenn

Hi Glenn,

That is an interesting site, but I can't figure out how to convert the citation. After a cursory examination, NARA does not identify any "JG 300" footage, though they have miles and miles footage. If there is a copy there, it is likely unattributed. Sorry I couldn't help.

I'll try and get hold of whoever did the website and see how I go.

thanks for your time-If you come across any JG 300 in your travels chuck us a PM.
