Regarding the 14 April 1945 loss, there are at least signs that NSG 20 was active:

Re: I./SKG 10 & NSG 20 Puzzles
Thanks John & Nick. Matti had looked at VDK. In respect of Scharf, an aircraft crashed that day but there is no NVM and in respect of Löscher, nothing for that date. The other two definitely killed but date, causes and details not known

Re: I./SKG 10 & NSG 20 Puzzles
Löscher could also have crashed on an earlier date......an died from his wounds a few days later?
You state that Seibel was buried in Postdam? He is in the DRK-Bildlisten. Do you have any other information on Derboven or Seibel? Last edited by John Manrho; 4th July 2020 at 15:33. Reason: Adding info |

Re: I./SKG 10 & NSG 20 Puzzles
Thanks John. It would appear that being so late in the war and close to the end, the deaths of these guys might have been missed. I have photos if interested

Re: I./SKG 10 & NSG 20 Puzzles
Yes, losses from mid March until end of war are an issue. In my JG 6 research I found approx. 10-15 losses who ar nowhere mentioned. As soon as you have a name it becomes easier.....so, we should be able to dig up something regarding Seidel/Derboven.
You stated that Seidel was buried in Potsdam....do you know where that info comes from? John |
