Re: Hptm Helmut Heisig

Jim the incident on 25-2-1942 is from the Luftwaffe QM's return of 27-2-1942 which shows Flak damage at Nelwetlay, no aircraft details or percentage damage shown ( plus KG4 book by Karl Gundelach ). The loss of Heisig with I/SKG10 is from a typewritten style NVM which gives Hpt. Helmut Heisig geb. 14-2-1920 in Bochum missing from an attack on London on 23-3-44 in Fw 190 G-3 wn 160498. This loss would appear to tie with the claim of S/L Thwaites and F/O Clemo in a Mosquito of 85 Sqd. who claimed a Fw 190 off Rye at 0012 hrs on 23/24-3-44 ,
