Re: German War Veteran Story-Comments?
Well, i tried to some digging through various reference works and came up with?
First, i looked at my references for JG-5 since he claims to have been wounded by a Spitfire over Norway, Could not find anyone with the name Senzig. I'll do some more checking around. If he was drafted in 1939, it 's just possible that he served in the BoB. On the tank front, his pretty vivid descripton of the breakout by King Tigers appears to be the breakout by Schwere Panzer Abteilung 503, which did fight in Hungary, and attempted to surrender to the US Army in Czechoslovakia. His account is just possible,but I'd like to get more details. Since he lives in Illinois, I just might try to get his address and write him. I'm not too surprised about him transferring from the Luftwaffe to the Wehrmacht, as I have read of this happening in certain cases. |
