Please help with LW Pilot

[Albert]

Dear All,

I've had this little pilot's grouping in my collection since my early days of collecting. The medals were given by the pilot to a friend of mine. The old man wanted to keep the docs though which turned out to be a big mistake. He died and his relatives thru them away...

All I know about the man is his name and the unit # on the ID disc: Burkhardt HAESLER / 215 962.

Any info on the unit (also see the pin) and on the man himself is appreciated!

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Albert

I looked through all of my references and all I could find was a Alfred HAESLER, who was a Nachtjagdflieger who ended the war in the rank of Major.

Sorry.
