Luftwaffe prisoners involved in Canadian PoW escape 19/4/41
Hi guys
I'm unaware if this has been discussed previously .... On 19 April 1941, 28 Luftwaffe prisoners attempted an escape from the Angler PoW Camp in Ottawa, Canada. Two were killed by guards - Gfr Herbert Loffelmeir and Gfr Alfred Meithling; another, Kurt Rochel, was seriously wounded, and Oscar Broderix less so. Just over two months later, on 30 June, Martin Muller was killed by two soldiers (?) PS Just established that Muller was a submariner, ex U-35 Does anyone know the Lw units of the above, and dates of capture? Stay safe Brian
