Re: Unidentified KG3 Oblt. killed 1940

Oblt. Graf Rudolf von Platen-Hallermund KIA 28.08.1940 near Marche, crash

can´t find something about Fw. Köhler, but I´m missing several names of KG 3 crews in 1940.

Regards

Ofw Reinhold Brinner was killed 19.02.1942 at Ostrizy.

No problem Melvin, my info i have had for many years, Matti is likely to have newer and more accurate detail from the NVM.
