Thank you for that news. Do you know how his last days were? I had heard he was lucid about 1 year ago, although ill.
Rest in Peace. -

I know from personal experience that Heinrich Springer was very helpful, generous and patient towards historians and collectors.
The ranks of surviving Ritterkreuztrager are geting fewer.
Regards Richard.Always looking for Luftwaffe Kampfflieger related document groups. In particular anything to Kampfgeschwader 2.Comment

Unfortunately I never met him, since when I joined the "Freundeskreis" of the HIAG-Hamburg he had been ill already and did not travel anymore. I wrote him though and he wrote me back, sending what he mentioned was the last autograph he would ever have signed. I am very greatful.
I just hope sincerly that his heritage will not be torn apart as others have been in the past like Wisch, Baum and many others.
