Seeking confirmation of first name of Hptm. Willi? Brandt, Sta Kap of 9./KG51 shot down 15 May 1940 in France

Hello,

In our EoE Loss DB, we carry:

“May 15, 1940: 9./KG51 Heinkel He111H. Crash-landed one engine badly damaged in attacks by No. 85 Squadron Hurricanes north of Vitry-le-Francois, France, a.m. Possibly that claimed by Sgt Allard. BS Gefr Karl Landmann killed, Hptmn [ ] Brandt (Staffelkapitän) and rest of crew believed unhurt. Aircraft 100% write-off.”

The Luftwaffe Officer Career Summary DB lists Brandt as:

"BRANDT, ? . 15.05.40 Hptm. and Staka 9./KG 51, shot down unhurt in He 111 H by 85 Sqdn., force landed N of Vitry-le-François."

His first name may have been "Willi." Can anyone confirm this?

Regards,

Larry Hickey
