Lt.NEBEL 9./JG 26

[Chris Goss]

Could be he was buried by his family and I believe that Matti is not allowed by WASt to give away DoB and place of birth

Attached the "death card" of WASt, which can be found at ancestry.de site (as other similar cards from WASt).

HenryNebel was in my friends 9/JG51. After the war he emigrated to Australia. There he became a well known builder of homes. He visited us in the 80's. There he was treated to Gunther Schack's energetic driving. When we arrived at our destination, he said "you're making aerobatics on the roads". He was too.

Off topic, I'm sorry.


A question to Matti;


"This Lt Nebel's EM was issued by 9./JG 26."


Is there any open source where you can determin what unit issued a certain EM?


Again, sorry for breaking in.

I have never seen any open source for the MOB-numbers, but I sincerely hope that WASt will include also this listing into the material they have started to scan and put available at least in their computer to be used in the researchers' room.
Of course it would be best to have all WASt material available open for public.

Also, Doug went through Caldwell's books on JG 26 with a fine-toothed comb and apparently didn't see Nebel's name. That's strange unless Nebel was enlisted (other ranks) back in 1940-41?

Hi,
D. Calwell's register of names is very incomplete. If any of the FF JG 26 did not have an air victory, did not die at JG 26, was not captured, or was not wounded, he did not have to get on this list.

Thanks, Tony. That gets Doug and yours truly off the hook for now, I guess.
