Staffel unknown
On updating my files on KG 1 I stumbled on 3 crews for which 2 of them I have the names of the crew and the crew positions and for 1 one only a name and date.
II./KG 1: The crew of Fw. Heinrich Hoben, lost in the night of 16/17 March 1941 III./KG 1: The crew of Obfw. Friedrich Greiner, lost in the night of 11/12 April 1941 III./KG 1: an Uffz Erich Alisch, he and 2 of his crew were WIA, a 4th apparantly went MIA on 3th August 1943, due to Flak. I searched the forum but got no return. Perhaps someone has the info about the Staffel belonging. Would be much appriciated. Kind regards from a very hot Belgium! Dirk |

Re: Staffel unknown
Matti,
If I may be so bold. I have a BF Uffz. Hans Kugelsetter, who was KIA when his a/c crashed, but I cannot find an airman with this name on the VDK website. I tried different spellings but no joy. Some possibilities: or I have a completely spelled wrong name, or he wasn't KIA just to be wounded, or he was taken to his home town for burial. Perhaps you have more information about this BF? Tia, again, Dirk |

Re: Staffel unknown
In the NVM the name is Kuglstatter, Johann, DOB 1919-08-28. In the EM list the name is Kugelstatter. I don't know, which is correct, but think that EM list could be more reliable. According to the NVM he was killed.

Re: Staffel unknown
It's indeed Kugelstatter, but on the VDK site he listed as Johann Kuglstatter, without an "e". Thanks a lot Matti, one more solved.
