Re: Ofw Wilhelm Baumgartner .9/ JG 77

Thank you Dirk! I always thought he was shot down by Polish pilots of 145 Squadron or an USAAF Spitfire Squadron. Could you please inform me in which volume of Prienīs work you found the picture of Wilhelm? I will try to obtain this book, even knowing only single words of German...I found on the net a list of all DKiG winners of Luftwaffe, but Wilhelm was not there, although there were other Baumgartners ( one from TG.5 and another from StG.77 ). Perhaps he was awarded it after his death!?
Thank you for the nice INFORMATION and your kind answer.
May you have a nice week my friend!
Yours
Adriano Baumgartner
PS: Could you post the photo, or send it to me via e-mail?
