Have just established this guy made five claims between August 1941 and February 1942 in Russia(I-16's and Pe-2's). But I know almost nothing about him.

Facts:

Trained with ZS1

ZG units ZG26, ZG1, ZG2.(staffeln unknown to me)

I./JG104 for conversion to Bf109.

Ends war(which he survived) with II./JG52, sometimes flew with Peter Düttmann. Baled-out in combat with U.S Mustangs 20/03/1945, but probably unhurt.

Am looking for date of Birth/death, and dates related to his units.

Assume his five claims were with ZG1, but what staffel

Grateful for the help of anybody more enlightened than myself.

Keep well

Johannes
