Re: "Flieger" Wolfgang Kosse (Sturmstaffel 1)
He was promoted to Hauptmann on 01.04.1943. Hptm. Kosse was demoted on 30.11.1943 and also sentenced to 9 months in jail. He was for 3.5 months in Untersuchungshaft. The remainder of his sentence was "delayed"as he went to Sturmstaffel for Frontbewaehrung. His sentence was revoked on 8 Oktober 1944 "wegen hervorragender Bewährung durch Tapferkeit vor dem Feinde in einer Sturmjagdgruppe." Not sure what it exactly was what he did but it seems that he used his rank to force somebody to make a false statement under oath....
