Re: Info on Oberleutnant Alfred Veith (KG55)
The bulk of this comes from Larry deZeng’s massive collection of Lw. Officer career notes:
Alfred Veith: Born 25 April 1918 in Pomster/Adenau. On 24 October 1944 as an Oblt. and observer in 5./KG 55, he was awarded the Ritterkreuz for destroying 24 planes on the ground, 16 tanks, 27 locomotives and 20 trains. 1 January 1945 he was promoted to Hptm. He was credited with nearly 400 combat missions. On 30 September 1976 , he retired from the Bundeswehr as an Oberst. He has no known death date so he may still be alive.
