Re: Missing pilot remains found...but WAST will not recognize??

Mike,

Uffz. Kurt Nüssle of 9./JG 11 has a grave (Lommel Block 57, Grave 13). This was properly done in 1993-1995 after the information was finally handed over to the WAST. The actual recovery of human remains and the dogtag was done in 1983-1985. What happened between 1985 and 1995 is not something for this board. However, the WASt is not solely responsible for the fact that it took almost 10 years between actual recovery of the human remains and final formal identification.

I am not sure why CV tells you that both pilots are still MIA. That is not true.

John
