Hi, I am looking for any information on this S/NCO or Officer, I am told that he was awarded the Spanish Cross in Gold, he was killed when he crashed on the island of Hoy, on 17.10.1939.

Yes, Squadron Leader Johnny Kent, he records his scrap with En?len as "the only real, full-blooded dogfight I ever had" Joe.

I know all about grave 404, this grave has the name A. Schenk, until the VDK have the money to replace it. When En?len was killed, he was not identified, no ID or EM disc on his body, only the shoulder badges of a Hauptmann, he died when he bailed out at a low altitude, and his parachute did not have time to open properly, the name A. Schenk, was on a label on his parachute harness, probably the guy who packed the chute, with the lack of any other ID, he was buried under that name, so that was it, until September 2004, when I was able to convince the German authorities that this was En?len's grave. His widow, Gertrud, who is now 87, lives in Stuttgart, she still has all her late husbands medals. Regards Joe

Hi Jacques, Yes, his SC is in seen in three photo's, I have tried to email you, for your postal address, but no reply? I will mail the copies, as soon as I have it. Regards Joe

I have a photo of En?len, provided by his niece, this was taken in August 1940, would anyone be interested in a copy? Regards Joe P.S. my scanner is US.
