Re: Wolf-Dietrich Wilcke

Dear Nick,
Thank you very much for your answer. I wonder whether she was related to Gunther von Maltzahn...

Re: Wolf-Dietrich Wilcke

Correction to my last, to the best of my knowledge he was a batchelor. Please pardon my mistake: Adelheid Freifrau von Maltzahn was Guenther's wife.

Re: Wolf-Dietrich Wilcke

Dear Nick,
Thank you very, very much for your reply. After so many jokes, we have finally arrived at an answer...
In fact, I'm quite surprised. I don't know why - maybe because of his age - I thought Wolf-Dietrich Wilcke had been married. So, he was a bachelor after all...

Re: Wolf-Dietrich Wilcke

In fact, he was married. It is mentioned here: https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Wilcke,_Wolf-Dietrich

He got married on 29 May 1942 in Wernigerode.

I wonder how I didn't manage to google this. Maybe it was added later.

(So, he ruined a woman's life after all...)

Wouldn't you say he brought happiness to a woman for a while and that the man who shot Wilcke down ruined her life?

Re: Wolf-Dietrich Wilcke

Dear John,
I have deleted my message. I didn't mean to have a fight, I only expressed my point of view. I'm sorry if it was taken for a fight.

John,

My comment was meant by way of "try looking at the other side of the coin", it was not meant argumentatively at all.

By marrying, Wilcke brought happiness to a woman and that happiness ended when Wilcke fell in combat.

Re: Wolf-Dietrich Wilcke

It is a testament to the human spirit, and love, that Luftwaffe pilots were getting married at all. I find it amazing.
