Obstfhr Paul Egger -Pilot with JG-27?
 

Obersturmfuhrer Paul Eggert, a Tiger II Ritterkreuzholder of SS Schwere Pnazer Abteilung 502 was a Luftwaffe pilot during the Battle of France and the Battle Of Britain. See this Wikipedia article which mentions that he flew with JG-27

However. I can't find any trace of him in JG-27. Can anyone help?

Information concerning loss of Fledwebel Emil Markl - Russia - 22.06.1941
 

Hi,

Could anyone provide details of the loss of Feldwebel EMil Markl who was killed on the first day of the attack on Russia on the 22nd June 1941?

His sterbebild says he was lost over Schaulen in the East.

He was an experienced member of the Luftwaffe with awards including an Iron Cross 1st class and a frontflier's badge in Bronze.

Thanks

Rick

Re: Information concerning loss of Fledwebel Emil Markl - Russia - 22.06.1941
 

Hi Matti, this a/c appears again in the loss lists for 19.7.41, this time as 100% Ju88A-5 W.Nr2277. F1+EP.
A/c destroyed due to enemy fire and abandoned nr Filowu-Gora, the crew baled out safely so not named in GQM6 lists!
Presumably recovered and repaired?

Best regs,
Steve.

Re: Information concerning loss of Fledwebel Emil Markl - Russia - 22.06.1941
 

I understand NVM info in this case so, that an enemy fighter shot the aircraft near Schaulen and the aircraft returned to the base with killed Fw Märkl.
Bigger problem is, that I have the same WNr. destroyed already 1941-03-20 (5./KG 51).

Matti

Re: Information concerning loss of Fledwebel Emil Markl - Russia - 22.06.1941
 

I have the same as Matti minus the details for the Märkl KIA where I had the casualty but no machine. Stands to reason that the March loss must be in error. SKZ for WNr. 2277 should be DH+OM.

Memorial card questions
 

There are enough questions about airmen featuring on memorial cards that it seems sensible to dedicate a thread to them, so that they are all accessible in one place.

Re: Memorial card questions
 

Hi Nick,

I was wandering what was happening with that sudden sticky flag.
Good suggestion, is it possible to put all former memorial cards thread under that banner? :D

BR, Franck.

Re: Memorial card questions
 

Possible, but a long and tedious job!

Re: Memorial card questions
 

I bet it is Nick. Don't worry I was just teasing.
If I really need I'll look for Rickback threads (75%) and Melvin ones (22%) like that I'll miss nothing! :)

Regards, Franck.

Re: Memorial card questions
 

Nick,
Is it still "long and tedious" if you create a sub-forum for Memorial Cards, copy this thread into it, and then copy the Rickback and Melvin threads into it? Then let others find the remaining Memorial Card threads, add a "bump" post to them so you can see and move them; possibly deleting the bump post so they stay in the proper chronological order.

Notice that I did not start off by saying: "all ya gotta do is ..."

Enjoy!

Frank.

Re: Memorial card questions
 

Ah, but the creation of sub-forums is beyond even my awesome powers. It's a Ruy thing.

Re: Memorial card questions
 

Nick,

So, let me rephrase the question. If "Ruy the Awesomeist" does his thing, is it still "long and tedious" for "Nick the Awesome"?

Just looking for reasonable solutions.

Enjoy!

Frank.

I am looking for information abaut Deathcards

Jozef bracl gefallen 10.11.1943 in russland

Thanks for reading and for any information

Regards Mike

Re: Memorial card questions
 

Hallo Mike,

without having seen the original cards there must be several typos making it difficult to verify the persons:

Gottfied = Gottfried?
Jozef = Josef?
Jackob = Jakob?
bracl = Bratzl?

This prevents one person being listed twice oder three times, each time in different writings...

It is horrible e.g. to find out crash places when one letter of the location is written wrong, thus placing it from the north of Germany to Austria or what else...

Regards

Fran
