A celebration will soon take place in the memory of Gerd Naumann who was shot down and killed on 22 August 1944 near Perdreauville, in the west of Paris.

Any information about him would be welcome.

Thanks

Good evening,

there is a "Lt. Bernt Naumann" (born 18.12.1921 in Bremen / last known location: Paris in August 1944) listed in the VBL of this unit - maybe Neumann?

Regards,

Heuser
