Re: stukapilot jakob jenster
Interesting reading. I have a group to Jakob Jenster's wingman whilst with 7/StG 1, his name was Siegfried Plappert DKiG. They both transferred to Versuchskdo. für Panzerbekämpfung together but due to illness and a previous accident Plappert was hospitalised and after recovery became an instructor again with SG 151.
Incidentally they were both at Stukaschule 1 together also, however Herr Plappert did not transfer to 7/StG 1 until 1941 after the invasion of Russia and the release of certian instructors.
I have some letters from Herr Jenster regarding their shared experiences....even celebrating their 70th birthdays together!
Regards,
Ian
