Re: KG76 photo - 1940
Chris - it was with some notes about 15 September that Alfred had relating to Heitsch, but it could just be with those notes because Alfred concluded it was 8./KG76. Or maybe Heitsch wrote on the back of the photo for Alfred? Although it looks like an original print, the names seem to have been written in Biro. My conclusion was that somebody wrote on the back for him, and of the three aircrew we have one unknown (?), one unintelligible/undechiperable and one called Schmidt.
Always a danger with these things of putting two and two together and coming up with five! I have to say the of the Heitsch 'connection' it is purely circumstantial, on reflection, and there is no actual evidence it came from him.
