hucks216 Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 LW Flak units don't seem to be the most collectible of units but I don't know why they get overlooked so often as they still saw action, a lot of the time against air raids obviously but also in ground combat. Even during air raids they suffered losses from time to time. This man seems to have got around a bit, starting in Germany and ending up in Greece and the retreat from that region. One of his units was in Africa but for some reason he remained in Germany at that time, although he was only with them for a month. Can you make out what the circled word is? Is that an entry making a note of a shot down aircraft? I can see that it starts with 'Feind....' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
