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.

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.

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 %.

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

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