About His Death
[edit]It's written "On 20 December 1943, during a combat with P-38 Lightning fighters south of Oldenburg, the Bf-109G6 (Werknummer 15 709—factory number) of Süß was hit by enemy fire, forcing him to jump from the plane. While he was in his parachute, Süss was shot at and killed by U.S. pilots." on "March 6th, 2016" version of Wikipedia Article
But it's written "According to his comrade, Viktor Widmaier, Suess's parachute failed to open and his comrades found him, dead, in a field west of Bremen." A Higher Call by Adam Makos (page 195) ISBN 978-0-425-25286-4
So, which one is true?

Notability
[edit]Does not meet WP:SOLDIER & sig RS coverage not found link, just passing mentions
No de.wiki article exists. Did not hold a significant command and topped out as Leutnant. Successful completion of missions (sorties flown, # of enemy aircraft shot down, etc) is not part of SOLDIER. A MilHist RfC on this topic has failed to gain consensus in May of 2017:
Please also see a note at MilHist Talk Archives for background behind the redirect. In summary, per the outcome of the discussion at Notability:People on notability of Knight's Cross recipients: permalink, certain recipients were deemed non notable and WP:SOLDIER has been modified accordingly: diff. The articles of these recipients are being redirected to alphabetical lists. K.e.coffman (talk) 21:06, 19 August 2017 (UTC)
Ye old pub
[edit]With source of Adam Makos book the B-17 "Ye Old Pub" from the Well known incident with Franz Stigler was added as arial victory for him by the Luftwaffe. This has to added somewhere in the article, at the moment there is no Link.--109.42.114.251 (talk) 18:01, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
