Oberlt. Walter Hockner 6/jg77 crete 1941

[Colin R Corne]

Does anybody know the fate of Oberlt walter hockner of 6/jg77.

He was the pilot of a bf 109 that shot down Hawker hurricane mk1 serial z4606 over crete 26/05/1941.

My grandfather was the pilot of the Hurricane and i hold no malice to this pilot but am curious to whether he survived the war and is still alive

I am not sure of the exact circumstances of the kill but any info from the luftwaffe side woould be of great interest to my research
