Re: Infformation concerning loss of Uffz. Josef Weishäupl - killed 25.12.44
Hi Rick
I have had a copy of this memorial card for a while , I take it that Gotteszell is his home town ( Gottesriel on VDK site ). The card states he was killed in the West , that he held a wound badge had 6 years service and he that followed his two brothers . Not certain if this means he was the third brother killed or third into service .
The Grave record gives his dob as 12.11.1919 at Gottesriel and that he is buried at Daleiden .
I could not find his name on the losses for aircrew that I had for 25th Dec 44 , and am told it does not appear in the Balss Claims and Losses for December 1944 on that date.
The Memorial card said he belonged to a Fliegerstaffel perhaps even a Para . or Luft. infantry soldier ?
Regards
Brian Bines
