JG1 Fw 190A-8 Shot down 21.11.44

Hello fellow researchers!

Can anyone supply me with further information regarding the loss of Ofw Arno Potzel on the 21st November 1944. Arno was flying Wnr.175007 - Red 6 when shot down in combat with P-51 Mustangs. Does anyone know which American pilot shot him down? Does anyone have a photo of Potzel?
Where is the grave of Arno Potzel?

If anyone can give me any answers to my questions I would very much like to hear from you. One last thing, Potzel came down at Roda/Erfurt.

Thanks in advance.

If you know the exact time you might narrow it down further by looking at the Encounter Reports
