Hi Keith

Quite an obscure pilot. He is likely to have claimed more Russian aircraft in the last months of the war, which he survived. A total of twenty has been claimed for him. Ended war as a Feldwebel. Claims known with 6./JG 52 are:-

20th October 1944 P-39 30km SSW Debrecen 0925 hrs 2000 metres Nr.1
13th November 1944 Yak-9 10km N Budapest 1430 hrs Nr.2
16th November 1944 Yak-11 W Tura 1238 hrs 1200 metres Nr.3
11th December 1944 Yak-9 30km NNE Szekesfehervar 1109 hrs 1200 metres Nr.4

Kind Regards
