Karl Neumann
Victories : 75
Born in Breslau, Karl Neumann was married in May 1942 to his wife Ottilie, and they had their only son Peter in January 1944. Karl Neumann was in NJG1 in the Luftwaffe, and scored all of his 75 victories with this unit, before transferring to JG300 around December 1943. He flew Bf109G6 Gelbe 5 (Yellow 5) with this squadron. On 6th March 1944, his unit began assembling to intercept American bombers and at 1.50pm he powered up his Messerschmitt on the runway. His aircraft became caught up in the slipstream of another aircraft and he lost control, crashing into a house. This not only killed the pilot, but sadly also claimed the lives of four occupants of the house. He is buried in Marienbad. |
