Hi Alain,

thanks a lot for your info. Seems Erich Krüger is still MIA.

Somehow difficult to beleive when you know that the airfield Bad Aibling where he took off is just about 100 miles to the place he had to fly an attack against ground troops near Augsburg.
Seems difficult to find out more.
Thanks again
Rolfeb
