Re: Hanns-Veit von Obernitz
He was born on 6th October 1924, and died on 10th October 1999. Seems that the day he was shot down he claimed an Il-2 at 1210 hrs 100 metres altitude with 5./JG 54, but was then shot down by a Lavochvin-5, he bailed-out of his flaming Fw190 over Viipuri, Finland, and captured three days later. Released from captivity Christmas 1949.

Kind regards

Johannes
