JG 53, missing pilot, 1940
Bonjour,
In 2002, one Bf 109 was found in France near Rethel with an unknown pilot. He is now buried somewhere in France. To locate the burial place, I have contacted Volksbund without success.
I have a French report written in 1941 affirming that a spade was painted on one piece JG 53. Inhabitants evacuated the village on May 13th 1940. SO The a/c crashed between May 14th 1940 and May 1941.
On may 14th 1940, Alfred Stark disappeared (missing)...
Are they others pilots missing from JG 53?
Thanks
