Re: Hauptmann Wilhelm Moritz, Stkp. 12/JG51 when?
Hello Ota,
Thanks for this information. I agree that Moritz probably signed this award citation very soon after his predecessor left. He was not officially Staffelkapitaen until December 1942 but this citation has, I believe, Moritz's signature on it. Moritz signed it as Staffelkapitaen on 20th August 1942, so he must have been leading 12/JG51 from at least 20th August 1942. I attach a copy of Moritz's post-war signature which is very similar to the one on the citation.
Regards,
Andy
