Gen.d.Fl. Ulrich Grauert
 

Hello!
I have found out, that Ulrich Grauert at the time of his death was shot down on May 15, 1941 in France.
His plane, a Ju 52, had the Wnr. 5595.
Does anyone know the codes on this plane?
I have his autograph and would like to build a model of it.
Thank You in advance
Christian

This Ju-52 was shot down by Poles servied in RAF, I can not recall the name of that polish pilot right now, but I may check it out later

This Ju 52 was shot down by F/Lt Jerzy Jankiewicz (Spitfire II, P8130) and Sgt Wacław Giermer (Spitfire II, P7786) from 303. Squadron.

Cheers,

Jankiewicz was killed during the war, but Giermer passed away only this spring.
Jankiewicz flew P8130 RF-T and Giermer P7786 RF-C, the description of the action you may find in Poles in defence of Britain book, a photo of Giermer's RF-C is there as well.
I have only a scan of a portrait of Grauert from der Adler, so if you can provide a publisheable scan from the photo, it would be most appreciated. A photo of very this Ju 52 anyone?

Thank You very much Franek!
My picture of Grauert is also from the Adler magazine.
My signature of him is on a citation to a pilot from 1938. The pilot was from 9./KG 152 "Hindenburg". At this time Grauert was Genln. und Höherer
Fliegerkommandeur 2.
I have the rest of the pilots papers as well, but unfortunately it has so far been very difficult to find very much about him. He ended his carreer in KG 30....well sorry, thats another story. Thank You again Franek!!
Best wishes
Christian

Old thread, but I wanted to add an award document that I think has Ulrich's signature when he was Commanding General of I. Fliegerkorps during the Battle of Britain.
