Thank you very much Jan,

the one Oberfeldwebel Wilhelm Brunen born in Mönchengladbach was the one, which fate/Vermisstendatum the family searched.

All the best, Horst

Hi, Horst

Would be very interesting to know what happened. Would you maybe be willing to ask the family to request information from the WASt with regards to this?

Would be nice to see what unit, and if it was an aircraft crash, what aircraft he flew.

Regards,
Andreas B

FYI Schlesien was a German province at that time, not Polish.
