Werknummer + Squadron He 111 Moelders died on

[Leo Etgen]

Hello Igor

Do you know the subtype of He 111 it was? Thanks for the information that it was of 9./KG 27. The information I have states that the radio operator was mortally wounded but I would go with the KG 27 diary.

Horrido!

Best regards

Many many thanks to all those who helped us with this thread. I suppose this is the main reason of the forum: share information, help and enlight doubtful information published. Everybody grows with this system, everybody learn a bit more and find out FRIENDS who have the same interests and doubts we do.
I am indeed very grateful to all those who have helped me so far. I wish to contribute and help others in the same way, as far as my knowledge permit me.
May you have a nice week! Cheers for all!

Holá Leo and all the other participants of this thread,

according to Fritz von Forell, the author of the book "Mölders und seine Männer" and the post war book "Werner Mölders, die Geschichte des großen Jagdfliegers", the radio operator OFw Artur Tenz was only slightly wounded. So we have two survivers of the crash - it is astonishing to me that so less is published about it. I attach a very faded photo of the crashed He 111 H-6 near Breslau, which I scanned from the above mentioned book. The fuselage lies upside down and the cockpit is broken away.

Cheers
