Hi Matti,
Thank you! The information orginates from a POW interrogation. It seems the POW did tell the truth (he may have not remembered the exact date, but at least Uffz. Förster was indeed killed during an accident). The POW mentioned that until 19 March 1945 Erg.KGr(J) only had to fatal accidents, but on average 2 non lethal accidents per day. Roger |
