Does anyone know info on Hauptmann Hajo Hermann, Staffelkapitan of 7/KG30
Barrage Balloon collisions: "One of the most remarkable escapes from a balloon 'strike' happened on Monday July 22nd 1940 over Plymouth and was made by Hauptmann Hajo Hermann, Staffelkapitan of 7/KG30 who, in trying to avoid a balloon, actually stalled on top of it, but with unbelievable luck was able to gain control of his Junkers Ju 88 again after falling off the balloon upside down"
From http://www.ne-diary.bpears.org.uk/Bck/BSeq_01.html#B1. Interesting website of a NE War Diary including many incidents..chronologically researched including Bombing, aircraft crashes, deaths with locations and dates and times.. Does anyone know info on Hauptmann Hajo Hermann, Staffelkapitan of 7/KG30 and what became of him did his luck hold or was he killed later?
