Re: Gabor Nemeth

Thanks for getting back on topic. The kills are on the Bf 109 and he said his Staffelkapitän was Maj, Erich Rudorffer. That would possibly put him with either JG 2, 54 and later maybe 7. The info I have is second hand. A friend of mine listened to stories told by him regarding his service in the Luftwaffe. But this was more than 20 Jears ago. Right now Nemeth is in questionable health and I think 91 years old. He was an officer by rank. He also had 3 to 4 flights in the Me 163. During his last flight he possibly damaged a B-17 during a suprise encounter while on a training flight. He has no kills on the Me 163 or the 262. He was a British POW and interogated in England after the war.

We are trying to get in touch with him but as I said his health is poor. This is all I have so far.

Thanks for all the effords from everybody,

Norbert
