A highly decorated BF in II./StG 1, but who was the pilot?
 
Hello!

I have obtained a very interesting deathcard of Ofw. Georg Dein, who was a BF in the above mentioned unit.
He was awarded the Ehrenpokal, DKiG and had more than 500 missions to his credit (Flying clasp with pendant).
It says in GQM, that his plane crashed on the 7. oct. 1943 in the Witebsk area and that the pilot was unharmed.
Is it possible that anyone know the name of the pilot? I was thinking that maybe he was a known pilot but that is of course purely speculation.

Thank you in advance

Christian

I have a note, that the pilot could have been Lt Hauck. However, I have no firm evidence.
