Re: New Member/Uffz.E.Schwarz details
Welcome Wölffchen.
Do you have access do Donald Caldwell's JG 26 War Diary?
p. 469-471 & p.523
Looks like Erich Schwarz made a final claim against a Yak(-3) on 24-04-45.
At least we know he flew with JG 26 and continued to have success after he was wounded in 1944.
p. 547
15-05-44 WIA, but no further casualty listing, so we may assume he survived the war.
It would indeed be a good idea to get in contact with Donald Caldwell, but he doesn't frequent this forum, so you'll better get in touch through Les.
