"Victory Stick" of unknown Expert
Hello Gordon
I am pleased to see that it is very possible that you have been able to identify the pilot to whom the victory stick belonged. You might care to know that Leutnant Heinz Käppler, Staffelführer of 15./JG 5, was killed on 24 March 1945 when his Bf 109 G-14 (W.Nr. 781 202) overturned on take-off at Lister in Norway. You may find interesting to know as well that he was born on 30 May 1920. I hope that you find this useful. Any comments or corrections are welcome.
Horrido!
Leo
