Re: Lt Heinrich Tornow 4./JG 51

Hi Chris,

I am off to Cosford on Friday 8th November, it is my intention to pop into Cannock Chase with am American friend of mine en route.

Let me know where Tornow is buried and I'll grab a picture . If there are any others let me know and I'll grab them while I'm there.

Cheers

David

You can send me a PM if you would prefer.

12 Kills; two were in Spain.
I though he was shot down by F/O W.H.Nelson of 74Sq.
