9.Felddivision(Luftwaffe)

[David Goody]

I have been researching the military career of Major Heinrich Fritz Buschmann, full details to date are in the section titled ‘Germany: Third Reich: Awards, Decorations & Medals (Wehrmacht)’.

I suspect he went missing during the Soviet breakout from the Oranienbaum pocket in early 1944 whilst serving in the supply units of the 9.Felddivision(Luftwaffe). From what I have read on the internet the division was pretty much destroyed in that action. I have been unable to find any detail on that critical time.

Would anyone be able to assist me please on further understanding the fate of the division, especially the rear echelon soldiers?
