Searching for Nightfighter Pilot Koch,
Dear All,
presently I'm working on some crashes here in Black Forrest/Germany.
In the night from March 15th 44 to March 16th 44 the RAF run a bomber mission against Stuttgart. Based on the "Bomber Command War Diaries" (Middlebrook/Everitt) the RAF lost 41 aircraft.
The Lancaster DV194/CF-F was shot down at 23:21pm near Obereschach/Black Forrest.The German pilot whot shot the bomber down was a "Unteroffizier" Koch.
Does somebody know the night fighter unit Koch belonged to? In addition I'm also looking for the prename of Koch and if he survived the war.
Unfortunately I could not find that details.
Thanks a lot in advance
Rolf
