I am researching Major Klaus Mietusch – There does not seen to be much on the WWW about this WW2 Luftwaffe Ace.
However, I would like to know more about him. Was he married? Did he have any children, and apart from the 5 photo’s available, did anyone write a book about him?

JG-26
Klaus Mietusch features significantly in Donald Caldwell’s books on JG-26, I particularly commend the “photographic history” and the two part “war diary”. Get them, you will enjoy them.
You might also like to (search first and then) enquire at the 12 O’Clock High forum.
Here is a search on his name at that forum.
