Re: Informations about Major Alfred Lindenberger

Hi Philippe,
The book 'Above The Lines' by Franks,Bailey and Guest has Alfred Lindenberger as a Leutnant observer with Flieger Abteilung 234 in 1917,during which time he shared three victories,the first with Vizfeldwebel Breitenstein on 29 May and two with Vizfeldwebel Kurt Jentsch on 2 and 21 October.
After training as a pilot,he joined Jasta 2 Boelcke in 1918 and claimed nine further victories between 30 May and 1 November.His claims list also has four more victories for September 1944,no unit or dates mentioned,but a quick look through Tony Wood's claims lists shows two on 29 September while with StabII/JG300,a B-17 at 12.41 in the area Hildesheim-Salzgitter and a P-51 at 12.55 NNE of Quedlingburg.
Hope this helps,
Regards,Mark.
