Johann Illner
Hello
Oberfeldwebel Johann Illner served with 4./JG 51 and claimed seven victories during the Battle of Britain before being shot down and taken prisoner on 5 November 1940. He is best known for having collided in aerial combat with F/Lt AC Deere of 54 Sqn, RAF on 9 July 1940. I have his list of victories and loss list information but unfortunately not much else. He appears to have been born in 1911 but there seems to be very little information on this fellow. Can anyone else add more details about this ace?
Horrido!
Leo
