Re: Fw Günther Keil 2./JG 2

Yes Andy and Further information!

I put the question to Erik Mombeek, which work on volume 2 of his book “Dans le Ciel de France, Histoire de la JG2 Richthofen”
Moreover, like Christmas approaches, I benefit from this mail to transmit the links where you can find the volume 1:

http://www.luftwaffe.be

http://www.christian-schmidt-fachbuchhandlung.de/product_info.php?products_id=4830

It is formidably illustrated photographs, much news photos….superb.
For Erik Mombeek, It there Fw Gunther Keil which was in 2./JG2 since 1940. He leaves the JG2 for the JG3 and he still returns with the 2./JG2 where it dies on June 20, 1942.
Then, There is Georg Keil, from the 3./JG2, which obtains well two successes during the Jubilee operation . He leaves the JG2 to the JG11, where he received the DkiG the 25th December 1944. Georg Keil survives the war and Erik Mombeek met him 20 years ago.
