Interesting request.

There is Unteroffizier Heinz Haug, 8. Staffel, II./JG 4, who went missing in the St. Vith area that day.

Neither in the Gen. Q. Master reports, nor in Eric Mombeek's book, this name is mentioned for 23rd December 1944.

What do you think about a misspelling ?. His real name could be (double-name) Heinz-Gerhard Haug.

Re: Help needed for German hand writing

Hello,


If i look to the handwritten n in Hank and Ergolding it is no u for me In this time mostly by an u they done a stripe - over the u for make the difference n to u ( Another thing is by an ü sometime People done a - over the u inplace two Points) If i look further to the g in Ergolding it is not a k like in the name Hank. Maybe it is Hauk? So the writer wrote a wrong name or People later" translated " / describt the Name wrong, have never Seen an Original paper with the Name Haug so i can not say.

Rg.

Re: Help needed for German hand writing

Hello,

according to the VBL (LH176) his name was Heinz Haug (born 18.04.1923).

His a/c was Fw 190 A-8/R2, Werknummer 682 659, "blaue 17".

"Oblt. Diesem" may be Oblt. Rudolf Diesem, 7./JG 1, MIA since 05.12.1944.

Regards

Heuser

Re: Help needed for German hand writing

According to Manfred Kudell, there was a flight student in his training group with the name of "Teddy" Haug. Kudell started his flight training in group 11²/43 in early November 1943 with FFDS A 121 in Ergolding. I couldn't find a flight log entry for Haug to confirm his name though.

The condition/damage of the backside of this photo is similar to photos that were sold on ebay in early 2014. It was a group of photos belonging to a member of FFDS A 121, JG 103 and JG 4, among them also photos of Kudell.

Kind regards,
Daniel

Re: Help needed for German hand writing

Hello, all

The loss of Uffz. Haug is listed in the GenQu6Abt loss list of January 20th 1945 as follows:

http://www.aviationhistory.no/ref_db...?lossid=127526

No big mystery - it is of course possible that the spelling of his last name is wrong.

Regards,
Andreas B
