Re: Ar 234 Friedrich Bruchlos
Gentlemen,
the Arado of Fw. Bruchlos was most propably damaged by AAA, but finally shot down from USAAF-Fighters near Niederbreitbach, about 20 km SE from Remagen. This is verified by various local eyewitness reports from the surrounding villages, dating from 1975/76.
By the way, this is the only loss of an Arado in the vicinity of Remagen in which AAA was involved.
According to W. Dierichs KG 51-book, an Uffz. Alfred Benninger was killed on the same day (09.03.45), the location is gives with Remagen. I don't have any further information about this man, but his unit (KG 51) was equipped with Me 262...
Best regards
Heuser
