Robert Weiss

Hptm. Robert Weiss +29.12.44.
There are two memorial graves of him, one at Lingen/Emsland (he crashed in this area) and one in his hometown in Austria.
Was he ever recovered and where was the exactly crashsite? What does the NVM say?

Re: Robert Weiss

Yes, he was recovered. He crashed just west of Lengerich (some 10 km east of Lingen/Ems). He was buried in Lingen/Ems, Grave R33. This grave still exists with a "Im Memoriam" headstone as he was transferred to Baden/Wien in 1957/1958 (I do not have an exact date). Apparently he was later transfered to Helenenfriedhof in Baden, but I have no records of that.
