Re: Hauptmann Johannes Kiel - 29 January 1944

Leo:

As well as I know (Peter will correct me if I am wrong), Hptm. Johannes Kiel was Gr.Kdr. of new formed III./ZG76, wich received most aircrafts from II./ZG1 and III./ZG26 (he was StaKa in III./ZG26 before appointment).

Also, he was killed by B-17 gunners, I think he was attacking from rear after launching his WGr.21, and was unfortunate to catch a burst from Rear-gunner(s) from bomber formation. Thats why his gunner was able to bail out.
