Gentlemen,

Feldwebel Georg Spring of SG-77 was awarded the German Cross in Gold on May 17,1943 and the Dive Bomber Operational Clasp with Pennant a few months later for completing over 400 combat sorties. How many sorties in total did Spring flew before he was taken off operations for Fw-190 training? He was killed in June of 1944 during the training.

Sincerely,

Edward L. Hsiao

I have many of the award citations issued to Georg Spring (I am missing his EK 1 Urkunde) along with some associated documents and portrait photographs.

Unfortunatly, his Soldbuch, Wehrpass, Leistungbuch or Flugbuch are not present so I cannot say for certain when he ceased operations before starting conversion training for the Fw 190.

Regards Richard.
