Halifax Gunner Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 (edited) Please can anyone give me details of how I can find details of a Luftwaffe crew member shot down in UK. His name was Gerhard Rehaag, I have no details of what his rank was. He was a POW and when released stayed in England, becoming an engineer in Fords car factory in Fords at Dagenham, Essex. He married my Father's sister. My Father was shot down over southern Denmark as part of crew in a Halifax Bomber on its way to Berlin. He too became a POW.
