Uffz Ludwig Mang
 

During operations around the Dieppe Raid I have a note saying that Uffz Ludwig Mang of KuflGr.106 was killed after Ju88A-4 WNr. 140078 was damaged (20%). But checking through my records I cannot find a reference to him in the notes I took from the IWM copy of the Luftwaffe loss lists.

So can anybody confirm whether Uffz Mang was killed on 19th August 1942?

Thanks in advance,

Steve

106 was not directly involved over Dieppe rather attacking targets in the Portsmouth area that evening. Born 5 Nov 1920 in Obergünzberg and yes buried at Chateaudun.
