Notability
Does not meet WP:SOLDIER & sig RS coverage not found link, just passing mentions and / or non RS militaria literature. Commanded a fighter wing in the last three months of the war, but, by that time, Luftwaffe had stopped being an effective fighting force, so I don't believe this meets SOLDIER #5 (significant body of troops in battle).

No de.wiki article exists. Did not hold a significant command and topped out as Oberst. Successful completion of missions (sorties flown, # of enemy aircraft shot down, etc) is not part of SOLDIER. A MilHist RfC on this topic has failed to gain consensus in May of 2017:
 * MilHist:RfC on the notability of flying aces.
