I received from the family of Fw. Gerhard Scholz a few details of his career and loss. Apparently, he was a pilot in a night fighter unit, and was shot down in combat sometimes in July 1944, in the vicinity of Budapest, Hungary.

Reportedly, a Lieutenant was also flying along with him that day, and both of them were shot down. Before that, the Lt. reportedly had scored two "kills" and the Fw. one. The Lt. saved himself with the parachute, but the Fw. was killed in the process of bailing out.

Would anyone know details of the demise of the 27-year-old Fw. Gerhard Scholz? N.B. His name is not listed in the Volksbund database.

Thanks,
