    Hans Lange - Kampf-Geschwader 51

    Hi,
    I need help to identify a German pilot. I know his name was Hans Lange and he was awarded the Spanish Cross w. Swords in Silber.

    Any chance to find out what happend to him. I know there was a Hans Lange who recieved the DKiG from the Kampf-Geschwader 51.

    Could it be the same Hans Lange?

    Thanks
    AJ

    If the Hans Lange in question is the flyer who served with KG51 he was killed in Russia on 18 June 42 while serving with the 2nd staffel of KG51 as a Hauptmann.

    It appears he also served as 3rd staffel Staffelkapitan.

    Regards

    Jeremy

      Hi,
      Thanks for your reply.
      I'm not sure if it's the same Hans Lange, but do you have a photo of the Hans Lang KIA by the KG51 ?

          Hi AJ

          Unfortunately I do not have a picture of the Lange from KG51.

              Hi AJ

              I am not sure if he was or not, I would imagine your question about a picture of Lange was to see if he was wearing the award.

              As you do know his award of the DKiG is fairly early, December of 1941 if i recall and it would imply, along with him being a staffelkapitan that he had some length of service with the LW though perhaps not all with KG51.

              Let me look a bit more and see if something turns up.

              Regards

              Jeremy
