hi, and help !! (info on Karl Werner Wirtz)

Hi everyone, i came accross this site while to trying to trace my wife's Father's luftwaffe history, ive been scouring the net for a while now on and off but not found anything, all we know is his name, Karl Werner Wirtz, and that he was shot down quite early in the conflict and was held prisoner at Broadbridge Heath near Horsham in sussex, i cant even find any mention of a pow camp there lol, and thats all we know cos he didnt like talking about the war, any help would be a great help

thanx

Re: hi, and help !!

Any idea if he flew on a bomber or a fighter?? Was he a pilot, bombardier, navigator, gunner, radio operater??
Any idea on his rank (Officer, Enlisted??) or date of capture?

Regards,
Mike

sorry, but no idea of what roll he had or any dates, he didnt talk much about it, apparantyl he was glad to be shot down and captured, so he was enlisted i guesse, a bit of a lost cause realy i suppose lol
perhaps i could look at prisoner records, any idea where i could look?
