Re: Info needed on Me109 G10/U4 W.Nr. 611008
HI Marc!
I have more info on this from another post I made...but the owner did not know the werk at the time. I have the majority wreck and found the werk hand-written on the inside fuselage.
This is the info that was given to me:
"March 1945 flew an Me109 G reconnaissance flight over Freyung Grafenau to Schoenberg. In Schoenberg, the aicraft was hit by the US (FlaK?) and caught fire. The plane flew towards a house in the woods where it crashed into a boggy ground in front of a forest.
The pilot bailed out, but he did not survive. The body was recovered and carted off with to a house in the woods, where he was given a simple funeral by a local woman. The name of the pilot was Feldwebel Hans Helmut Habermehl from 1/JG 10/8. Years later, his body was sent to Hofkirchen (military cemetery)."
As there were no units of JG10 or JG8...I am assuming that what was supposed to be written was JG108?
If he has this much info, there must be a record somwhere, no?
Mike
