Stuka pilot interview: Attack on Malta Convoy

Thanks for that, I look forward to seeing it.
I know that 1 St. G 76 were involved in a training incident on 15 august 39 at Neuhammer where almost the entire staffel crashed into the ground due to fog.
They were being led by Hauptmann Sigel and were demonstrating dive bombing tactics to some senior Luftwaffe officers.
Was Heinz involved that day?

I will ask him about it but it will only be next week. Heinz talked a lot about Walter Sigel and it was his commander as well. He has a deep respect for Walter.

Thanks for all these precious infos and photos Tinus,

Can you ask Mr. Migeod about names of other pilots of I./St.G. 3 during his time in Greece? Who was his BF?
When did they leave Crete exactly?

cheers
