Hans and Joachim Grubert I/JG54
Hi guys
Out of curiosity - I have a note that twins Hans and Joachim were killed on the same date, 15 April 1943, while serving with I/JG54. Is this correct? Were they flying on the same sortie? Same Staffel? Both shot down? Can someone enlighten me, please? Cheers Brian |

Hans Grübert
Hello Brian
Unteroffizier Hans Grübert (5 victories) of 1./JG 54 killed on 15 September 1943 in Fw 190 A-6 "White 11" (W.Nr. 530 322) by Flak at PQ 35 370 Christer Bergström states that Unteroffizier Joachim Grübert of I./JG 54 was also killed that day but I did not find any loss list entry for him. I hope that this helps. Horrido! Leo |

Re: Hans and Joachim Grubert I/JG54
I have Uffz. Johann Grubert with aircraft as Leo's info, is it the same man with variations of the first name ?

Re: Hans and Joachim Grubert I/JG54
Just a note on the claims total for Hans Grüber. Leo's post gives him 5, but I find a total of 14 in Tony Wood's listing.
