Identity of airman?

[rickback4444]

Hi,

I have just acquired a portrait photo of an airman with a transcript on the reverse of the photo.

I think it reads Heinz Rapp?ilber - kampfgeschwader 2

With a date saying 1942.

Can anyone help me correctly identify him?

Many thanks

Rick

An Uffz Heinz Rappsilber (BF) was awarded the Pokal in Sep 43. No mention of him being a casualty with KG 2

Uffz Heinz Rappsilber is a different person. Ogfr Horst Rappsilber (Bordmechaniker), DOB 2 Aug 1919 was in 9./KG 2 when MIA.
