According to my notes taken from several ULTRA BT-series signals along with Gen.Qu.(6.Abt.) losses for 11, 21 and 26 February, 2. Staffel was based at Biblis and had a mix of Bf 109 G-10s, G-14s and K-4s. I./NJG 11 was operating under Jafü Mittelrhein. I have no strength information for the Staffel for that date.

Hi Larry, SES,
thanks for the info. Reason why I ask is that I found the grave of Georg Matt who was KIA at Feb. 26th 1945. Based on his sister he was a Night Fighter pilot in 2nd NJG 11.
But she has no details. The only thing she told was that her brother flew already against England and survived the entire war till short before the end.
No CV available so far.

Thanks
Rolfeb

Dear Members of this forum,

I'm looking for the vita during WW II of Georg Matt. As far as I understood he was flying already from the beginning of WW II till he was KIA in Feb.
He also flew in a NAG (Nahaufklärungsgruppe) in Russia but no glue in which one.

Thanks for help.

Ich habe nichts über Herr Matt. He is not listed as a recipient of the Ehrenpokal either, which is somewhat strange given that he flew throughout the war. I sense that he was Mannschaft and not an officer. If that is so, then your only hope for his career details will be to have his sister e-mail or write to WASt in Berlin. They may have some information on him.

Hello Rolfeb,

Here is a copy of the WASt Verlustmeldung for Georg Matt who after a non-operational flight had an accident on landing?. If you could supply us with a photo of Georg and his grave for our archive we would greatly appreciate it.

Kind regards,

Melvin

Greetings all,

My database lists Uffz. Georg Matt of 2./NJG 11 as flying Bf 109 K-4 WNr. 332522 on 45/02/26.

Has anyone else notice the hand written 2-line entry in column 2 that appears to read: “Bf 109 G14 159730”

Hi Steve, Note that this report has a different date and that there was some sort of accident on landing?

I have found a few bits of info regarding this fellow:

From Balss p. 485:
Balss, Michael . Deutsche Nachtjagd – Personalverluste in Aubildung und Einsatz – fliegendes Personal (Eich, Germany: self published, 1997).



26.02.45 2./NJG 11 Bf 109 K-4 (WNr. 332522), Uffz. Georg Matt KIA crashed S of Schwetzingen during a combat mission.


From the Kracker Pilot Archive:
Awards: EK I and II, Night fighter clasp
08.05.44 claimed a 4 engined bomber 30 km N of Bourges

Nothing in Schiebert or Scherzer.

Unfortunately the Tony Woods material doesn’t seem to extend into 1945, but I did find:

17.11.43 2./NAGr. 12 Lt.Matt claimed a Spitfire near the Sangro River estuary at 10:56 hours at 1,00 m height.

While this is unlikely to be the same guy, it is rather curious.

Hi Melvin,
thanks for posting this document. Very helpful and I will send you the foto you requested.

Doug,
also your information is becoming very interesting now. I learned that Matt flew in NAG 12 in Russia - at least in 1942 - on FW 189. Could you tell me more about this claim? Where is this Sangro river?

In addition Matt flew already since 1939 and was in 1945 still Uffz. Is this normal?

Thanks in advance
Rolf
