Darren,
Thanks!

You are right, it was James Bacque who wrote the piece I mentioned. Apologies all around for getting it wrong forumites.

However, I knew that I had some kind of negative association relating to Irving's name. So, I will re-phrase my previous statement: "I would take anything Irving said with a grain of salt since he has a tendency to question important aspects of the Holocaust."

There, I hope that is better.

For info regarding Degelow's activities post-war regarding his trying to get old Kameraden out of Nazi Germany I refer y'all to
Germany's Last Knight of the Air: The Memiors of Major
Carl Degelow by Peter Kilduff. It was a great read, and I found a copy cheap on either Alibris or Abe Books, I can't remember which now.
