Re: Major Hans ‘Assi’ Hahn Award Certificate

It would be nice to see or read his Flugbüche. Maybe his son is still alive...or his grand-sons.
It is very nice to know that some of you have met him and other LW airmen (Falck, etc.) personally, when they were still there.
I had the chance to meet personally one of the very few Brazilian born airmen that flew for the RAF in WW2, back in 2014 (he was 94 then); and also Herr Martin Drewes and another radar technician from Telefunken who worked with NJG 2 and flew with Lent.
As it has been discussed onto this Board several times, without "first hand" accounts (those who were there) it is more difficult to write about WW2, but not impossible. It just loose the personal side.
A nice thread.
