ad322 - c1944 Luftwaffe fighter pilot KIA near Reisendorf - shot down by P-51 in aerial combat -long letter to parents with details of what happened on the day and what happened with the remains of their son

Original. Copy of a letter from the owner of the land on which Luftwaffe pilot Unteroffizier Kurt Büch crashed after aerial combat with enemy fighters to his parents. The owner describes what happened and describes in some gory details what remains were found (a hand and a foot and some other parts, his head was no longer recognisable, etc). The landowner organised the funeral with military honours and HJ, BDM, NSDAP leadership, etc in attendance and so on. He also writes that he has their son's cap which has two bullet holes through it so that it was likely he got killed by headshots prior to crashing. The crash happened on 22nd August 1944 near Reisendorf. Two A4 size sheets. 

He flew a BF109G-6 and got shot down by P-51 Mustangs.
