May 20. 1944
 

Good evening!
I have tried on another board, unfortunately with no luck. Hope for some help (again) here!!
The matter concerns an Ogr. Scheibenzuber, who fell on the above mentioned date.
It states, that he belonged to a KG as a BF and he fell on a long range flight.
He is burried in Rovensko b. Turnau (Gräbersuche)

I do not hope it is annoying with these questions, that i often come up with, but i search all i can in my own material, before i ask here. Often is it difficult with 1944 - 45.
I am more than willing to share my pictures with you guys, who wants it.
Best wishes from sunny Denmark

Christian
