He was arrested by the NKVD, and sent to the former Sachsenhausen concentration camp. However after a year, and the NKVD had checked his story he was released.

OK. Keeping to the aviation theme. Can anyone name the first German town or city to be bombed, in WW2, in which civilians were killed. | |

| Optio  | First RAF raid Wilhelmshaven and Brunsbuttel The first bomb of the war to land on German soil was dropped on December 3, 1939. A Wellington bomber of 115 Squadron, attacking German shipping in the North Sea, suffered a 'hang up' when one of its bombs failed to drop. It fell off on the return trip over the island of Heligoland. |
