Thanks Matti

Was he killed on the ground or in air battle?

Hello Rick,

according to the Gen.Qu. loss return the airfield Catania was bombed on 16 Jan 1941, Fw Dippel and Fw Kreutzberg were killed on the ground.
The entry "Fw Hans Schmidt und Fw Rampichler verletzt" was corrected on 13 Dec 1941: Both were "unverletzt".

Regards
Leo
