I./St.G 3, 2nd staffel Pilot web site base is finished: Hauptmann Heinz Migeod
This is a follow-up posting and update on the series of interviews on stuka pilot Heinz Migeod since May 2010.
The base line of the Heinz Migeod web site is finished: http://www.heinzmigeod.com/ Included detailed updated copies of every page of his 1939-1941 Flugbuch (with German and English summaries of the comments parts) and Wehrpass. This information is comprehensive and conclusive as it confirms in a special way the movement and operations of the I./St.G 3 group. (Heinz told me that in this time no staffel of their group were detached) Included on the site are 55 short interview videos and some with historical footage and images. A few selective videos were enhanced with computer graphics flying simulations. He also assured me and gave permission that the information on this site, including his personal war photographs, is available for research and publishing. Thanks to the contribution from members of this forum in previous threads regarding this topic. Sample video with historical footage and computer graphics simulation: Shot down and captured in North Africa: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHyWMkc6MCk |

Re: I./St.G 3, 2nd staffel Pilot web site base is finished: Hauptmann Heinz Migeod
Hello,
Do any photos exist in the Migeod Collection of Ju87Bs or pilots/crewmen from the units (I./StG76 & I./StG3) he flew with in 1940 (Western Campaign or Battle of Britain)? If so, how does one go about obtaining copies for research and publication? Regards, |

Members;
It is very sad for me to announce that Heinz passed away last Thursday. Just 5 days before he died we had lunch together at one of his favorite restaurants in Cape Town; Panama Jack. He was so full of jokes and in high spirits. He told me some new stories on how they accidently bombed an Italian formation during the battle of Sidi Rezegh, He also told me how his mates played jokes on him where on a high ranking Luftwaffe pilot's dinner they filled his glass with clean cognac instead of shampagne during a RK award ceremony. We had so many unfinished work to do; people all over the world see the web site and many asked direct questions to Heinz...he loved answering these. Family members of his comrades also sent messages to him. The expected happened so unexpected... He died very suddenly, the Wednesday he was feeling bad and next day he left us. I am going to miss him very much; he was a true gentleman, young at heart, always being proud of the fact that once many years ago he was a Prussian officer of the Luftwaffe. Thanks again to members of this forum who helped with information and pictures regarding the web site, especially Chris Goss who wrote an article to be placed in Fly Past. S!
