PFC Niels Tuxen was one of the young Danes serving in the US Army Air Force during the Second World War. He arrived in the United States in late 1940 and enlisted in 1942. The nature of his service is not clear, but he was trained as a radio technician before the war.
Pvt Erhardt Frederik Jensen was one of the more than 30,000 Danish-Americans who were mobilized during the Second World War. He served in the Army Air Force.
Shortly after D-Day, the first V1 flying bombs hit London. Three Danish fighter pilots were involved in the fighter defence against the flying bombs in the summer of 1944.
In 1943 the pilot and author Clauson Kaas publishes a book entitled Danish aviators in the air. An appendix lists all then trained army and navy pilots. During the period 1935-1939 a total of 26 pilots are trained in the small Danish navy air service. I have been looking into the path taken by these pilots during the following years.
