Hptm. Hans-Heinrich Koenig gravesite
Hello!
In my collection of wartime gravesites of fallen Luftwaffe pilots is a pic from Hptm. Hans-Heinrich Koenig's grave. No further details. I want to know where he was buried. At May 24 1944 Koenig (Leader of I./JG 11) attacked a B17 but collided with the bomber, both crashed near Kaltenkirchen north of Hamburg (exactly crashsite unknown). Can anyone help? Unfortunately there is no entry via ancestry or at the Volksbund wargraves database, so I think he was brought to his hometown and buried there. The "Namentliche Verlustmeldung" would help with his last adress. Thanks in advance! Regards, Joerg. |
