Fw Rhode 1./JG 2
This pilot was on 1./JG 2 in 1942 but I have no victories or information. His name is also spelt Rohde-is he the same as the Fhr Rudolf Rhode killed 15 Jan 45?

Re: Fw Rhode 1./JG 2
Impossible, because Fhr Rudolf Rohde (killed 15 Jan 1945) was born in May 1925.

Re: Fw Rhode 1./JG 2
Thanks Matti. My Rhode had the Frontflugspange by 1942 so as you say impossible

Re: Fw Rhode 1./JG 2
Chris,
the "Rhode" you mentioned in 1./JG2 is actually Hermann Rohne. It was just misspelled in some photos. Fred |

Re: Fw Rhode 1./JG 2
Fred: Thanks for this. I can blame the late Willi Morzinek for that! He also names a Fw Fröschl (not the 10/JG 2 one) but cannot find him as well

Re: Fw Rhode 1./JG 2
I can find only one Fw Fröschl:
1942-07-02, 3./Stuka-Schule 2, Ju 87 B-1, 277, 6G+HP, Bombenabwurfplatz Haslach Flugzeugführer Fw Fröschl, Hermann, + Absturz infolge Bedienungsfehler. Bruch 100 %. Matti |

Re: Fw Rhode 1./JG 2
Thanks Matti. He was a trained fighter pilot on 1./JG 2 by this time so unlikely to be him. Another error was a Uffz Brändle which was in fact Uffz Martin Brendel

Re: Fw Rhode 1./JG 2
Chris. I understand that you are working on the identification on the photos of Morzinek. I already worked on the issue a few months ago. don't hesitate to send me an email. fred

Re: Fw Rhode 1./JG 2
Fred: It is OK apart from Fröschl. Of course, Rohne was then killed with 10./JG 2
