Staffelkapitän Erhard Schier 5./KG53

[Thomas H]

Hi,

I'm looking for information concerning Staffelkapitän (Hauptmann) Erhard Schier of 5./KG53. He was Staffelkapitän for the 5th Staffel from 15.11.1944 till ???

In the documentation that I have, or the internet, I can not find more about this man than what I wrote above.

He did not receive the RK or DKiG.

Any help/information would be much appreciated.

Kind regards, Thomas

A search of our files reveals only this:

SCHIER, Erhard. (DOB: 24.08.12). 01.04.43 promo to Hptm. (Kr.O.). 15.11.44 Hptm., appt Staka 5./KG 53 (to 04.45?).

The Kracker Archive has nothing about this fellow.

Apparently he did not have an Ehrenpokal.
He is mentioned only once in the KG 53 history by Heinz Kiehl and that treveals nothing new.

Good Luck...

Hi Doug,

Thank you for your time and effort!

I have his Frontflugspange in Bronze document, which is dated 06.06.1944 and addresses his as an Oberleutnant.

Kind regards, Thomas
