Lt. Walter Schneller and Uffz.Gössl 4.(Jabo)/SG5
I'm looking info about two 14.(Jabo)/JG5 and later 4.(Jabo)/SG5 pilots in far north theatre of Luftwaffe. In north-Norway and north-Finland operated in earlier mentioned units two pilots; Uffz. Hans-Kurt Gössl and Lt. Walter Schneller. I would like to see any photos concerning their Focke-Wulf fighters and would like to know their tactial numbers/markings +camo.
Especially those aircraft with that they lost in 21.3.1944 during attack/recon mission to Murmansk railway in heavy snow storm. The unit name changed to 4.(Jabo)/SG5 about a month earlier. Later they both were flying in Gefechtsverband Kuhlmey in southern-Finland summer of 1944. Schnellers Focke-Wulf Fw190 were marked as "Black 6" in that unit. Here are a group photo of 14.(Jabo)/JG 5 pilots in 1943. There are also both Uffz. Gössl and Lt. Schneller. http://www.stormbirds.com/eagles/uni...JG_5_more.html (roll down the page) |
