7/JG26 Bf109 'White 13' WNr1353 shot down over Kent 28/8/40
Does anyone out there have or know of a photo of Karl Straub, shot down over Kent on the 28th August 1940? Is he still alive? Are there any photos of his '109 'White 13' WNr 1353 before or after it was shot down.

There is a group photo in "JG26, Photographic History of the Luftwaffe's Top Guns" by Don Caldwell, which features Straub, but attempts to contact Don, or Les Butler, for permission to use the photo have failed.

The photo is credited in the book to 'copyright: Buerschgens'.

Could I get permission to use this photo from Buerschgens, or anyone else, i.e. does anyone else have a copy of it?

Cheers

Geoff.
