Rick, I see he is shown as a Glider Pilot so his death may not be aircraft linked he could have been lost in ground fighting after landing. Not certain if his loss would be the the airborne/para listings,

Hi Rickback444
You inquired about a Ludwig Hofmann a couple years ago. He was the pilot on my Uncle's JU-88 that went down 22 June 1943. Would you mind reaching out to me please if you could. I would just like to see if you have any information or maybe photos with my uncle in them. And see if you have a photo of Hofmann. I have a photo of their original burial in 1943. My uncle was Friedrich Arbe Thank you Daryl Goss darylgoss@gmail.com |

Hi
I have a sterbebild for Ludwig Hofmann with a photo on. I do not have anything else connected to the crew unfortunately. Sorry Rick |

Would it be possible to obtain a copy of the photo you do have of Hofmann, etc you do have ?
I know my grandmother, the air gunner's sister (Friedrich Arbe was the air gunner) would love to see a photo of Hofmann. She is still alive and well at 95 yrs old here in Pennsylvania. Daryl I have a photo of their original burial if you are interested. And know where they are all buried today. |
