JulioMoc - You can find reference and photos of Gunther Loeffelbein in the book 'Kampfgeschwader Edelweiss' (KG51) by Wolfgang Dierich. It is now out of print but I have a copy in good condition if you wish to PM me.

In tribute to the fallen RK holders I can add:

Oberst Wilhelm Sell, former Kommandeur of NAG5, 15/6/10 - 14/1/98 (Munich)
