Re: Details on two Abschüsse Einsatzkommando Helsinki 16-17.2.44?

Dear Theo,
Hptm Karlheinz Dietsche became detachment commander at Malmi Helsinki April -15 May 1944 and was awarded with the Finnish Flugzeugführerabzeichen. He never mentioned any air combat to me in this period. Due to the fact he got shot down by a P-47 at Stendal on 29 March 1944 I doubt he was on flying status while in Finnland.

Regards
Jörg Dietsche
