Lt. Hasso Holst, Flugzeugführer, I./KG 54

[Paul Giva]

I think some of you might find the following of interest. I acquired some documents belonging to a Ju 88 pilot of KG 54 that I wish to share. I have transferred to a word document most of what is written in the documents and consolidated that which I have gathered with relevant reference sources. I will post images to most of the pages. Please feel free to correct any mistakes or oversights I have made. Also, if there is something further that you wish to add to Lt. Holst’s story, by all means, please do so. I am relatively new to researching not just the Luftwaffe, but air units in general. Any help is greatly appreciated.
