Thanks Juncker,

Well I maybe got to the bottom of it today thanks to Google Translate, my iPhone and a copy of Erhard Jahnert’s autobiography. Erhard seemed to have a bit of a beef with Bunge (thanks Andrew A for telling me about this) and was very uncomplimentary about him in his book, anyway I digress but he specifically mentions Bunge and the 8th May evacuation.

My translation may not be 100% but the jist of it (according to Jahnert) is that Bunge did not show up for the evacuation flight on the 8th and basically disappeared, reappearing 2 months later dishevelled and amongst a group of non-pilots, never speaking about how he escaped the pocket. Maybe to be taken with a pinch of salt but interesting nonetheless….
