Thanks to the DeZeng/Stankey officer career summaries, we now have the correct name:

Other sources give his first name as Hellmut (two l's).

He was serving with 2./NAGr. 11 on 20 July 1944 and had to bail out of his Bf 109 G-8/R5 (W.Nr.200452, white 3) over Castellarano (RE) after engine trouble.
