[MJC]

I just received several new LW wartime Rangelisten and I can check your guy over the weekend. Let me know if you have already tried this route.

M.

[Wijtman01]

i have send you a pm

any one else has ideas

[Wijtman01]

[Simon O.]

As i mentioned to you in my pm, there is no regular officer by that name or variation of that name in the 45 rangliste. If he's a reserve officer then he's going to be difficult to find.

[MJC]

Same result as Simon, sorry to say. Best of luck!

Hm, could the first letter be an "L"?
Yes it does more look like a "D" but I checked the German phonebook and neither the name Danzius nor Donzius exist (today).

But Lonzius etc. do exist though they are not common. One Lonzius even
lives in Magdeburg. And a quick search in the internet also brought a
result:

http://www.jagdgeschwader301.de/code/pilotenjg3xx.htm


And look at that "D", he writes all letters on that label in a very clear way
(like a typewriter) except the first letter of Donzius. And what is the dot above
the letter?
Anyway, maybe wrong but maybe it helps

[Wijtman01]

since we are talking about it i think you maybe right
<TABLE border=1 width=982><TBODY><TR vAlign=bottom><TD width=255 align=left>Lonzius ,Oblt.</TD><TD width=113 align=middle>11./ JG 300</TD><TD width=163 align=right> </TD><TD width=97 align=middle>mind. 1</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

can you tell me what the last thing in the line means the mind 1?

he served in the wilde sau geschwader

maybe i can wright a letter to the living lonzius

[Jochen1000]

Check the following site: it is maybe better

http://www.cieldegloire.com/jg_300.php

the 1 means one kill (in this case a P51 on 14.01.1945, according to this site).


But as I said, the "L" vs. "D" thing is just an idea which could be possible
when I look at the picture. You have the jacket, maybe just recheck the writing on the label if it really can be an "L".
Because if it is not it makes no sense to say that it is an "L" - even if that
helps to connect the jacket to a man.

The one Lonzius in Magdeburg you will find here:

i am thinking this is the man, cause my tunic has loops for clasp, ribbon bar, ek1 and 2 badges, and its the same rank, place of birth and magdeburg is also in the tailor label

and lonzius is.... mabe he just wrote strange
