Information Concerning the Loss of Brothers Josef and Georg Niedermeier 1944

[rickback4444]

Hi,

Obtained a very interesting death card detailing the loss of two brothers both with the Luftwaffe.

Josef Niedermeier killed 4th May 1944 as Uffz. and Flugzeugfuhrer in a fighter unit and

Georg Niedermeier a Leutnant and pilot in a Destroyer gruppe killed on the 21st June 1944.

Can anyone provide details of their units, aircraft, crew and circumstances of their loss.

Thanks as always
