Where and how to start to research a bomber pilot

Hello all

i have recently gained a complete flying history of a WWII bomber pilot, who completed over fourty five missions, he was part of the Eidleweis (?) sqn from1939 until he crashed on landing in jan 41. i can think of 1001 things i would like to find out about him, other crew ,missions, aircraft etc etc etc, but having never done anything like this before, i am appealling to you knowledge as to useful places to start.

I also do not speak german and am finding it hard to translate letters, certificates, logbooks etc any good websites or other methods would be useful.

Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

many thanks in advance TFB
