Re: Seeking name of pilot who landed at Brandenburg Gate
 

Hello Pete,

As you can see, I have been on the same chase - just eight years later: http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtop...674c9a0922f4ca
I have never found an answer and doubt, that I ever will. All dead and gone, as the main actors are. I did discover one thing though; in many accounts - even by reputeable historians - Hanna Reitsch is accredited as the pilot who took the Arado 96 out (thus leaving poor Feldwebel B behind). In her own memoir (German version), she states that the three of them flew out together.
Incredible that such a flying talent and courageous man did not earn his place in the history books!
