Willi Pfranger JG5 1942

Hi guys

I don't know if he has been the subject of TOCH previously, but I would be interested to learn about him following his capture.

Cheers
Brian

Thumbs up Re: Willi Pfranger JG5 1942

Hi,

very interesting topic i search about him a lot and speak with Johannes

http://www.wingleader.co.uk/shop/luf...d-edition-set/

seems that survive the war and died in 1995 but maybe the writer or others could help more....

as curious note his claims match better than others of JG5!

regards

Re: Willi Pfranger JG5 1942

Thanks GM

Have you seen the Luftwaffe Aces set? If so, do they give, for example, a 'complete' list of Carganico's early claims (1.JG77) or Salwender's claims?

If the volumes only condense what is available on the Net or in other published sources, they hardly seem to warrant such a hefty price IMHO!

I await responses before they go on my Christmas wish list!!

Cheers
Brian
