Page 21 shows : Seit 12.10.1944 im Raume Osnabruck - Hannover vermißt. Around 11.00 AM Fischer was shot down by a 364 FG - P-51 Mustang and since then MIA. Some nice signatures in his Soldbuch : Glunz and Eder. Rank for Glunz, Caldwell shows in his book the rank Oblt. Glunz, but officially he was still Lt.
