Bf 109 loss on the eastern front
 

Hello,

I have an other question. Are there additional informations about a loss from the 26.01.1945 at the Usch-Schneidemühl area? The pilot Gfr. Gerhard Kuckuck was wounded. He was able to break thou the front line back to german troops after 12 days on the Russian side.

What was the unit?
What plane type he was flying? (Bf 109, but what version?)
WNr. known? Markings?

Thanks!

Best Regards,
David
