Re: crash near Boulange/Moselle on 10 May 1940
Tricky this, when an individual is using names where both can be used as a given and/or family names.
Matti Since the Germans could have had no idea which enemy units that shot them down, you must have added those details from elsewhere. Cornwell believed at the time of writing that both crew were killed but it was Hoffmann that was shot trying to escape capture while Ernst was just killed in an unknown way. Do we know for certain that Hoffmann was actually made a POW? Does he appear at any point after the BofF? B Rgds Stig |
