Loss of Oberfeldwebel Richard Kern - in air battle with 4 English jager?
Hi,

Have come in the possession of an interesting german death card of Oberfeldwebel Richard Kern. He was killed on 11th November 1943.

What is interesting is the description of how he died - in an airbattle with four English fighters (jagers). Can anyone provide any insight into this action? He was in a bomber squadron and was an experienced crew member with several awards inlcuding the Iron Cross 1st class and Frontflugspange.

Can anyone provide details?

Rick
