Re: Als Schlachtflieger im Einsatz, Werner Zirus (Band 2)

Hello all,

while looking for a book in my small library i ran into my copy of "Als Schlachtflieger im Einsatz ; Teil 1".
I wonder if there are any news about a continuation of Werner Zirus´s memoirs??
I hope he is still with us!?
Any news?

Norbert

Hi Norbert

I visited Hr. Zirus a month ago and as far as I know he is still with us. I have visited him twice the past five months and he is still "up 'n running".

He is writing on his memoirs at the moment, but I have not inquired about any details. I will post more information after my next visit, which should be sometime later this summer or autumn.

All the best
Morten

Hallo Morten,

So we can hope Hr.Zirus will surprise us with his story sometime in the future.
Maybe You adress him that there are a couple of guys realy interested in the experiences he made, and happy to hear more of him.

All the best

Werner Zirus is a very interesting and nice man (fortunately he is still with us). He too would like to see his book completed by this long awaited volume 2.

He wrote his memories but they are not publishable in their original form, they must be reworked. A friend of us did it for the volume 1, but he does not have time now to go further with this project.
If there is on this board a German enthusiast who would like to work on this volume 2, Jean-Louis Roba, the publisher of vol. 1, would be happy to consider it.
Feel free to contact me if you are interested, I would forward your message to Jean-Louis:
eric.mombeek@village.uunet.be

best regards

Eric
Hi all!

Do any of us knows anything about Vol 2 that must cover his I./SG10 adventures?

Cheers, Olivier
