Unteroffizier Fritz Bosl 8./KG 2 & 4./KG 2
 

Hello,

Last year I purchased a copy of the Flugbuch of above-mentioned person.
Does anyone have information on this person and in which crews did he fly exactly? Or can someone point to books/sources in which he is mentioned?

Kind regards,
Timon

Does he not mention his crew in the FB? No major awards nor any mention as being a casualty with Do 17s, Do 217s or Ju 188s

In 8./KG 2 I believe the logbook says pilot Uffz Hunse.
In 4./KG 2 he mostly flew with Leutnant Horst Becker (many flights in Ju 188 U5+BM). That aircraft failed to return 14/15 March 1944. Apparently (the by now Feldwebel) Bosl did not take part in that operation. His last flight with Lt Becker in U5+BM was in the afternoon of 13 March '44.

I can see no mention of an Uffz Hunse and you know what happened to Becker

Thanks for your reply. What's moreover interesting is that he flew in Do 217 E-4 U5+LS (which is illustrated in your book Do 217 units of World War 2: profile 9) on

I figured the name is actually Haase, which makes Unteroffier Wilhelm Haase, later Feldwebel.
He received the Ehrenpokal during the winter of 43-44 and apparently survived the war though was injured on 9-10 March 1943 when U5+LS was destroyed in a crash-landing.
Was 8./KG 2 the only unit he served in or were there more?
