Maj. Edwin Pezda - US Airforce
 

Hello,

years ago I found the crashplace with lots of parts of Major Edwin Pezda´s P-51 in Germany, he was hit by flak ,bailed out and survived as POW.

Once I got a message from a relative of him, I think it was his grandson or so, in an other airforceforum, but i coudlnt find him, I think the forums was shut down short time after he wrote me.

Maybe this relative of Edwin Pezda see that post and can contact me.

If somebody know any other big US Airforce, or US WW2 forum, pls contact me, maybe i can find him there.

I hope its ok, posting my Topi in this forum.

Have a nice day

greetings

peronje

Here is the obit of Pezda.

It does not mention a grandson but does mention a nephew, then living in Greensboro, NC. (It is easy to find an address using anywho.com).


I looked back at the armyariforces.com forum (not longer in existence but bits and pieces are in the internet archives).

If you put your cursor on the title of the first item, regarding Pezda, you can see that a "Jack Pastor" was requesting information:

On the Ancestry.com message boards, there is a request by Jack Pezda (aka Jack Pastor) from 2012 (who gives his email address) for information on the Pezda family in Detroit. Perhaps he was the one you were in contact with. I can pm you the email used he was using if you would like.
