Re: A "defecting" Jagdwaffe pilot...?
Hello,
... Interesting story Kaki, but not what is told but, yes, what is not told!
In effect the story is talking about TWO german guys:
one who was Wermacht captain and the second who was fighter pilot and who reached the same partisan band; I'm talking about the BRAZILIAN pilot KOPP; most probably (100% I would say) issued from brazilian german community, south Brazil (Minas Gerais if I'm right) settled down there well before WWII.
In effect there is no popular rumour neither urban myth. Simply memories mixed the two guys; And truly there has been a "german" pilot who reached a partisan after having been shot down. And the memory just recalled about the Captain who spoke just german ... the other one whose first name was Karl actually!
Think about that Ferdinando that's much more than some bits of true, isn't it?
Cheers, Franck.
