Re: looking for info on Heinrich Baer and his FW-190

Hi everyone,

all wartime documents including Bär´s personal fille kept from 1934 use name "Heinz", not "Heinrich".

I am afraid that "Heinrich" with relation to Bär is nothing more than repeated myth.

I am looking forward to Kurowski book. Hope to find there some interesting info missing in my files.

regards

Jan

PS correcting Roland´s typo: Bär was born in May, not in March.

Some sources quote his full christian name even as Oskar-Heinrich Bär, born 25.03.1913 in Sommerfeld (near Leipzig)

Regards

Roland
