Fate of the 4 jagdwaffe pilots
Hello Dmitry
I can only add that Unteroffizier Heinrich Rühl of 1./JG 53 went missing in Bf 109 F-2 "Black <-3-" (W.Nr. 6707) near Dover following aerial combat with Spitfire fighters on 4 June 1941. At the time he was an ace with five victories. He had previously been shot down in aerial combat with RAF fighters and forced to ditch in the Channel but was rescued by a German vessel on 2 September 1940.
Horrido!
Leo
