Oberleutnant Wilhelm Messner, searching for Details
Hi All,
Found some info regarding Oblt. Messner in https://www.tracesofwar.com/persons/...er-Wilhelm.htm Based on ToW Webpage, Messner was flying Stab/Nahaufklärungsgruppe 15 and was awarded with DKiG Oct. 3rd, 1942. Most probably a Wilhelm Messner became Staffelkapitän in 2./NAGr 13 in 1945. This could be the same person but I have no evidence at all. Are there more info available about Wilhelm Messner? Thanks a lot in advance Rolf |
