Re: Wollenweber and the He 162 ferry flights to Lechfeld
Roger,

Interesting field of history.
According to Roger A. Freeman, Mighty Eight War Diary (p.483), Eger area was bombed by 111 B-17 from the 3AD on 8 April 1945. Their primary target was Eger M/Y (Marshalling Yard) ... Are the airdrome or dispersal areas far from this target ? Recon photos (A/D) could reveal that. I do not know if this German town was bombed the days before.
No grave (?) for these pilots.
Regards
Philippe
