Josef Veltjens
Josef Veltjens was an ace (35 victories) and a Pour le Mérite recipient in World War 1. He was killed in a Ju-52 in World War 2, in Yugoslavia, either on October 6, 1943 or August 16, 1943. Can anyone verify the correct date, and the Werke Nummer of the Ju-52, and the location where it crashed?

Frank.
