Hauptmann Rudolf Smola - 27 March 1945
Hi guys
Hauptmann Rudolf Smola (17 victories, RK) was killed in action when his aircraft was brought down by Flak five kilometers north of Zinten on 27 March 1945. He is often stated to have been serving as Gruppenkommandeur of I./SG 3 at the time but other sources state that he was serving as Gruppenkommandeur of IV./SG 151 at the time of his death. I believe it to be the former but goes anyone have the usual loss information regarding his unit and aircraft to clear up this minor mystery of the war? Horrido! Leo |
