Re: Information concerning loss of Ltn. Georg Strasser - 18.11.1943 over Odessa

The unit was based in Odessa then. Odessa was <100km away from the frontline. Therefore a direct combat loss is highly unlikely.
So, an educated guess says that it was either a fatal landing mishap (maybe due to Falk or fighter damage) or an also deadly takeoff accident.
