Thanks Peter,

Your information is very useful. I have many reference books including the Battle of Britain and the Blitz Then & Now plus several other JG reference books but it is difficult finding specific information.

I buy Luftwaffe sterbebild where the crew could have been lost over England. I try to do a little research on each one. Please find attached word document as example.

Can you help with those that have no other details?

With thanks

Rick

Look forward to your new book.

Hello Rick,

Yes the book includes the details of some 1814 Luftwaffe aircraft & 3278 German aircrew known to have become casualties on the western front between September 3, 1939, and June 24, 1940, so it should prove useful to you.
