1./NaG31 Leutnant "Kraismbruck"?

[Johannes]

Hi Guys

Have been struggling with a certain Leutnant claiming for 1./NaG 31 in early 1944. Likely lost after 18th February 1944.

From his claim for a Jak-9 on 31st January 1944 I now think his surname is something like "Kraismbruck" or "Kraisunbruck", I don't think it's "Kreis...."

Any ideas/suggestions

Kind Regards

Johannes

P.S

Luftwaffe Officers Career summaries have this as Lt Kollenbrink ?, but it's certainly not the case.

Johannes,
Hans Ring in his "Sammelübersicht Abschüsse" lists a "Lt. Kreienbrink" from 1(H)./Aufklärungsgruppe 31 with three claims, all fighters in the East. No more info available. HTH

Hi Charles

Many thanks for your reply and suggestion. I have looked at it again, and the name below in the same handwriting shows "E's" clearly, and it's not the case with the name I'm looking for, and there does seem to be a "S" in it, though the what I thought was a "M" could be a "N".

Getting down the the nitty-gritties now 200 names to find from nearly 70,000 can't be bad, and lots of these I think are bordfunker.

Thanks again

Johannes
