Uffz. Ottomar Kruse
 

Uffz. Kruse of 8/JG26 was shot down and taken POW on 16-9-44, the JG26 book shows the location as Nutherveld. Despite looking on Google and my atlas I could not find Nutherveld (Belgium?) could anyone help with this location please.

Ottomar Kruse may know best... He lives in Hamburg, but I do not have his exact address.

Re: Uffz. Ottomar Kruse
 

No, Ottomar Kruse lives in Bremen, well he did when I last visited him!
Thanks Karl for the crash location, I will update Ottomar's page on our website.
