Hi,

This day at 12.35 hours a plane from II Marine Feldflieger Abteilung had to do a forced landing.
The copy I have from the original text is so bad, that I can't read whi was with him I just know it was a Lt.d.R.
Janhsen was severely injured and his pilot just light.
It seems they were hit by Flak, but this is also barely visible in the bad text.
Does anyone know with whom Janhsen was flying and where this happened ? I can't read it ! :'(

Thanks and best from Regulus

Hi Regulus

The pilot was Lt dR von Mühlenfels. He was an Army officer, so I dont have his first name... :-[

The a/c was hit over Hassewind by enemy AA, and in the forced landing it was destroyed...

Hi Gunnar,

Thanks a lot ! Some of the Freiburg copies are unbelievably bad and even now that I know the name, I still can't make it out of them.
