Luftwaffe burial
Posted: Mon Nov 02, 2009 8:26 am
Hi,
I'm trying to figure out a little bit more regarding a photo of a Luftwaffe burial in order to narrow down the possibilities of whether the man is in Flak or other units. The burial party are shown as all wearing steel helmets and my question would be if this man was in a fighter or bomber unit would the pall bearers wear steel helmets. I'm sure the Flak personnel would but can't recall seeing the flyers wearing them.
thanks
