Hi Rick,

Checked the Balss book (NJ personnel losses) and no one of this name is shown for 24/25-April-1944 which is probaly down to the lack of info. for 1944 losses. The Sterbebild says following heavy combat over South Germany (RAF raid on Munich) he was killed landing at his home base. It goes onto to say he is buried at St.Dizier. The NachtJagd War Diaries say 11 Bf110's of II/NJG1 took off from St.Dizier this night, so there is a possibility this airman was a gunner from II/NJG1. This is only from clues on the Sterbebild and would need confirmation if there is someone with further info. to offer,

Regards
