Looking for photos of Erich Handke and Georg Petz, crew Martin Drewes NJG1

[Theo Boiten]

Dear all,

Who can provide me with photos of Fw. Erich Handke and Ofw. Georg Petz, respectively Bordfunker and Bordschütze to Martin Drewes (NJG1)?

Cheers and thanks for any help,

Theo

Theo, cheers!

Have you tried to contact his only son? When I visited him, back in 1996, he showed me two mervellous Albums of pictures taken of his time with the Heer (Pz.Rgt. 6) and LW. There was a Green Album (for his Zerstörer time) and a Black Album (for his NJG 1 time) with hundreds of pictures, of great Historical interest, the planes he flew on training, etc...Of course, being a Gentleman too, I did not asked to photograph them and did not wanted to disturb this GENTLEMAN that was Martin.
The second option is: He published his own "soft" memories, in Portuguese and German language. Maybe you can contact the Editors to publish some of the pictures depicted there. I saw once at Ebay a Picture of Martin Drewes in Holland, without T-shirt, seated on a table, writing a report....but the price went to the skies, as it was supposed to go.

By the way...the "Community" is awaiting your 2nd Edition anxiously...hopefully on a accessible price in a dozen of parcels...mostly for us from the South Lands...

All the best and CAVOK SKY,
Adriano
