Hi everyone. I´m a new guy here and saw the thread where was question about Rommel´s pilot. Here is small information about him.
Erwin had a personal pilot. He´s name Ulrich Brasche 25.11.1909-1.12.1984. Born in Estonia,Kullamaa(5th child).

In estonian newspapers was a lot of articles at that time about Ulrich´s acts.
