Ritterkreuzträger ID needed
Hi!
Can anyone identify this fighter pilot wearing RK+EL on this photograph probably taken in Northern Africa or Tunisia? Thanks in advance. Chris Last edited by CJE; 28th February 2009 at 07:02.

Re: Ritterkreuzträger ID needed
he seems to be
Oberstleutnant (Lieutenant Colonel) GEORG DÖRFFEL (born July 27, 1914; KIA May 26, 1944). Commander Schlacht-Geschwader 5, Knight's Cross with oakleaves on April 14, 1943. On his 1005th mission (including 30 aerial victories as a dive bomber pilot!) he was shot down and killed north of Rome/Italy. Photo from April 1943.
