Re: Paul Fröhlich
Salut Adriano et thanks John,
the full story is as follows :
I interviewed yesterday at St Feliu d'avall (near Perpignan, South of France) a 91 year old gentleman who had seen the crash. He was then 12.
That's his description:
There were 3 FW190 in flight, in tight formation, and one come too close to another and sheered off the tail of the other. The later went up, jettisoned the canopy but (probably too low) crashed immediately on a house which - by chance - was empty, its occupants were elsewhere. So, nobody hurt on the ground.
The pilot Paul Frohlich was killed. The firemen came, the German army officers as well, (the Kids at that time were excited to see this event) and some pictures of the wreck were taken and they have been published on a local history book.
I went on the crash site yesterday but there are now houses, a school etc.. so no remains.
That's is why I was trying to get some information about Paul Frohlich..
If someone can help, I will be grateful.
All best and a nice week to everyone;
GC
