[Tom Semenza]

Rolf,

Perhaps I am missing something but the only information I can see on the Volksbund website lists his name, date and place of birth, that he was an officer (not exact rank), and the date he died or went missing. The year of birth, 1923, given in the Boehme book matches, so this may be the same person. It is certainly possible that Rentsch may have been sent for jet training but subsequently tranferred to a piston engine unit. Can you share any further details of your eye witness account?

Thanks,
Tom
