Looking for rank, FN and career info on a Luft Officer named "Peneter"

[Larry Hickey]

Hello,

I'm looking for info on a man with the last name of "Peneter," who may have been the Adj of II./KG26 during the winter-spring of 1940. The only person I find with this last name in the Luft Off Career Summary DB is: ""PENETER, Herbert. (DOB: 04.10.11). 24.02.42 Oblt. and pilot with BFS 1 – killed in Ju 52 crash at Fp. Altenhain. 01.04.43 posthumously promo to Hptm. (Kr.O.)." While this could have been him, transferred after service with II./KG26 to a flying school, this isn't enough to establish the connection. I need his rank during the period of the Scandinavian Campaign, his first name, and any relevant service history with II./KG26.

Thanx, as usual for your assistance.

Regards,
