Looking for surname of JG loss?
 

Hi,

I have recently bought a special portrait of a fighter pilot from JG 3 who was lost on 16.06.44

His first name is Walter and he is birth date is 25.08.23.

He was in 8./JG3 Udet - I have his name but it is hard to decipher - something like:

?rowada

Any help would be appreciated. If you do find him could I have details of his loss.

Thanks

Rick
