His combat career began in the Spanish Civil War during which he completed over 300 missions with Condor Legion. Throughout the Battle of Britain he served with III/JG26 against England and Northern France and in 1942 devised the successul air protection of Operation CERBERUS the famous 'Channel Dash' of the SCHARNHORST GNEISENAU AND PRINZ EUGEN. Later in the same year he tested an early prototype of the Me262 the world's first operational jet fighter before leaving combat to concentrate on the air defence of Germany against the RAF and USAAF bombing offensive.
