    Luftwaffe Spanish Airmen Graves

    Hello,
    I recently bought a great photo album that used to belong to a Lt in the schwere Artillerie Abteilung 422 and in it are two photos that some here might find interesting, namely the graves of two Spanish Luftwaffe airmen killed in Russia. The first belonging to Hauptmann Antonio Noriega-Labat KIA 1st July 1942 (the funeral sash mentions Moelders so he may well be from JG 51), while the second is for Lt Antonio Navarro (or Navarra) KIA 7th August 1942...

            Many thanks for that. I see that it also mentions Noriega-Labat being shot down as well.

              Captain Antonio Noriega (15/JG 51 Mölders) killed in action the 2nd of July 1942 during a dog fighting, flying a Me 109 F from a airfield in Orel.

                    I have to confess that I have been uneducated enough not to know that RIP is an acronym for Requiescat in Pace.
