Do we know if he actually drowned? The wreck of his Fw190 looks more like a ditching than a bale out.
There is this guy but don't know if he's too old and was actually a pilot. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/...EF-guuIqM7EGb8 regards MS |

Not the same guy. This is 9 years older than Obgfr Alfred Kruppa, who was killed in Finland.
