Hi All, We have had this message sent to us but I cannot find anything on this loss. Here is the message, hoping someone can help further.

Hello, I am searching for a possible relative Lt. Heinrich Ballmann,who went down and is missing August 15 1943 in Algiers, with two other people Rudolph Busch and Hans Strauss. Any information on them would be great.

Thank you!
