The list of victories of Ofw. Schmitz (1.) 3./NJG 7
 

Hello!
I am looking for the list of victories of Ofw. Schmitz (1.) 3./NJG 7.
Is such a list possible to be compiled?

I would also like to know if he survived the war?

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,
Gregor30

Alain57 --> yes he seems to be the one I`m looking for.
Jan --> Thank you for the list. Are they his only two victories during WWII?

Theo Boiten in Nachtjagd War Diaries lists a third claim for Ofw. Schmitz (although he does not give a first name for him) which was a 4-mot on 11.09.44 at 22.37 10-50 km E-SE of Horsens (NA-OA) at 3,000 m. A photo of Schmitz and his crew can be found on page 213 of Foreman, Matthews & Perry's Luftwaffe Night Fighter Combat Claims, 1939-1945.
