Question New Member/Uffz.E.Schwarz details

Hi! I'm a new member of this forum and I'd like to introduce myself. I live in the USA and my hobby is aviation history. My primary interest is in WW1 but I have been doing quite a bit in WW2 as well. I chose the user name Wolffchen because it was the name of some interesting WW1 airmen.

Over the last year I have been researching a bombing mission flown by the 8th A.F. over St. Nazaire on February 16, 1943. A bombardier on this mission was in a B-17 that was shot down but he survived and I'm writing up a memorial book on his life.

According to information given to me, his plane was most probably claimed by Luftwaffe Uffz. Erich Schwarz of 9./JG 26. I am seeking a little more information on Uffz. Schwarz.

Where was his unit stationed on February 16, 1943?
What kind of plane was he flying?

He was WIA on May 15, 1944 at Wevelgem. Did he survive the war? Any other details about him.


Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.

Very Best Regards, Wolffchen
