Emil Braun KG 806 / Küstenfliegergruppe 506
HI,
I would like to know more information about this person: Emil Braun. He was a Hauptmann / Oberleutnant in KG 806 /-Küstenfliegergruppe 506. I only know that he was a pilot of a JU 88 bomber and was shot down on 14th May 1942 and became Prisoner of war. He got the Honor goblet on 23.2.1942 (according to the goblet). Thanks for your help and assistance. Martin |
