Ofw.Willi Jobes 7 & 8/LG1 and 8/KG6

[steve sheridan]

Hi could anybody possibly help with the fate of Ofw.Willi Jobes.

Jobes flew with 7 and 8/LG1 mainly with Oblt..Rudolf Puchinger and subsequently together in 8/KG6. They joined LG1 on 19.3.41, I know Puchinger was kia on 19.6.44 but I have no info on Jobes.
If anybody could help I would appreciate any clues.
Steve.

Hi Frans thank you for your reply, however my main focus is on the fate of Jobes if known. I Have a copy of his flugbuch!

I understand there is a book on KG6 by I think Jan Horn, does he list any losses that may include Jobes?
Best regs,
Steve.

I have the losses from Taghon's LG 1 history & Horn's KG 6 history entered in my db - there are no entries for a Jobes (as spelled) in my Ju 88/188 file.

John

Many thanks Jim for looking, much appreciated.

Chris your help with his awards is most interesting, any further scraps of info would be most keenly sought!

Best regs,
Steve.

Chris, could you give me the title and ISBN Numbers of the two volumes of the Geyr/Jansen Books? I was not aware they were ever published.
