Some records say he was in an E-1 Wk Nr 3635, others an E-1 Wk Nr 3935 but Prien says it was an F-1 Wk Nr 5635. It would have been unlikely a pilot of his stature would have been flying at E-1 at that stage of the war. He was lost 11 Nov 40 and I have at 2 photos of him but both taken when he was with JG 53

hi, chris thanks but was he killed, too, in a book he was captured,but another says killed, ?
its amazing he was a 3rd ace top i believe with 19 victorys ,nothing ever been writen on him.
