HE177 2/kG100 lost on 18 April 1944
Hello, Merry Christmas to you all.
I am after a picture of FW Heinz Reis who was the pilot of a HE177A-3 (332379) of 2/KG100 who baled out and was taken prisoner over England on 18/4/44 when his aircraft was shot down by a mosquito. Do you have any pictures of him, his crew/ aircraft? Is he still alive? |

Re: HE177 2/kG100 lost on 18 April 1944
I was told he passed away and this was mentioned in a Saffron Walden newspaper I think in 2004. There was an article on the shooting down of this crew in War Monthly no. 82 in the eighties, this included a picture of
Werner Heidorn, Johann Wehr and Winand Hock. I only have a photo copy of the article, sometimes copies of the War Monthly turn up at car boot sales, charity shops etc but I have not found a copy of no.82., Merry Christmas Brian Bines |
