Ernst Reitmeyer NJG 5
Hi all,
Wondering if anyone out there may have some information regarding Ernst Reitmeyer who served with NJG 5. Not sure if he survived the war? Regards, Melvin |

Re: Ernst Reitmeyer NJG 5
Hi Melvin,
Fw. Ernst Reitmeyer flew with the 3./N.J.G. 5. He and his crew bailed out by parachute on the evening of 5 March 1945 after engine trouble with his Ju 88 G-6. No-one was hurt. What is the reason of your question ? Rgds, René |

Re: Ernst Reitmeyer NJG 5
Hi Rene,
Someone sent me a couple of photos of him but could not find a NVM report in my files. Will eventually create a page for him on our website. Regards Melvin Last edited by Melvin Brownless; 23rd January 2016 at 19:01. Reason: add more |

Re: Ernst Reitmeyer NJG 5
Would his aircraft be Wnr.622815 which crashed at Brotterode? Anyone have the rest of the crew details?
Thanks, Melvin |

Re: Ernst Reitmeyer NJG 5
Hi Melvin,
no personal loss no NVM. Yes his a/c was the 622815. BF Ofw. Schmeidler, BF N.N., BS Uffz. Bär. I would be interested in photographs of him and/or his crew. Rgds, René |

Re: Ernst Reitmeyer NJG 5
Hi Melvin,
Ofw. Ernst Reitmeyer survived WWII; he had 18 confirmed and four unconfirmed victories to his credit whilst serving in 1./NJG5 and 3./NJG5. In the NJWD 2nd edition, I have fully documented all of his victories. I'd be interested in what photos that you have of him -I have two portrait pictures of Reitmeyer. Cheers, Theo |

Re: Ernst Reitmeyer NJG 5
Hi Theo,
I also have two portrait photos, these came from Dr. G Reitmeyer via Jörg Helbig Auerbach / V. So we probably have the same images! I would be interested in the list of his victories if possible? I am now off to search for the Handke & Petz images! Regards, Melvin Last edited by Melvin Brownless; 24th January 2016 at 14:06. Reason: spelling |
