Thanks for that Matti, you say he baled out, did he suffer parachute failure?

Kind regards,

Melvin

Hello Melvin,

according to Prien et al, Jagdfliegerverbände Teil 12/I, page 502 (loss list) and text on page 444, Oblt. Hans Boos was rammned by a sovjet fighter and didn´t pull his parachute.
Hope this may help.

Best regards.
Bernd
