Re: Bodenplatte JG4
Remi,
The loss of Uffz. Heinz Richter on 1.1.45 has remained uncertain imho. There is no concrete proof, but it is accepted that he was initially reported missing but turned up later unhurt. So most likely he made a bellylanding or FSA.
He was actually killed on 16.04.1945 when he was possibly shot hanging on his parachute. He died in Krankensammelstelle 3/503 and is buried in Königswusterhausen.
Uffz. Heinz Richter, geb. 08.01.1924 Neisse O/S.
EM 67013/229.
Cheers,
John
