Thanks Uschi, nothing wrong with your English, perfectly understandable.
So Gunther Fahrholz was born in Danzig, have you any information regarding his loss?

Best regs,
Steve.

Can anybody else provide info on these four losses?

I had information given that for 7/KG55, G1+MR, and G1+KR were lost this day, but flown by whom?
Perhaps " Experten " like Remi or Jim P could possibly help?

Best regs,
Steve.

Good evening Norbert,
May i offer my utmost thanks to you, for providing the information regarding the losses of 22.6.41.
I am very very grateful, this ties up the scant information i have, enormously.
Very best regs,
Steve.

[Norbert Schuchbauer]

You are very welcome,

Norbert

[Pawel Burchard]

Norbert, does this come from NVM? If you have nothing against it I'd attach the information in relevant part of III./55 KTB.

regards,
Pawel Burchard

[Norbert Schuchbauer]

The information is from the loss reports of the Bundesarchiv Freiburg. Genst.GenQu.6.Abt. I have no objection to your request.

Regards,

Norbert

[Pawel Burchard]

Thanks Norbert. Interesting that the crew Lt. Raschka is listed as MIA on 23-Jun-1941, not 22.
