Helmut Bergmann

Helmut Bergmann (26 May 1920 – 6 August 1944) was a German Luftwaffe night fighter ace and recipient of the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross during World War II. The Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross was awarded to recognise extreme battlefield bravery or successful military leadership. Bergmann claimed 36 nocturnal aerial victories in 135 combat missions.〔For a list of Luftwaffe night fighter aces see ''List of German World War II night fighter aces''.〕
==Career==
Bergmann was born in 1920 in Bochum. He joined the Luftwaffe in May 1940 and after completing pilot training in July 1941, he was assigned to the ''Ergänzungsstaffel'' (Training/Supplement Squadron) of Nachtjagdgeschwader 1 (NJG 1—1st Night Fighter Wing). He was then assigned to 8./Nachtjagdgeschwader 4 (NJG 4—4th Night Fighter Wing) in early 1942. Promoted Staffelkapitän of 7./NJG 4 in April 1944, Bergmann shot down seven Lancasters in 46 minutes on the night of 10/11 April 1944, all from an RAF Bomber Command raid on the Aulnoye-Aymeries rail marshalling yard on the Franco-Belgian frontier. 38 Allied aircrew were killed. This was Bergmann's most successful sortie. He was transferred to 6./NJG 4 in May and on 9 June 1944 he received the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross for achieving 30 victories.
Four months later Bergmann and his crew - radar operator Feldwebel Gunter Hauthal and gunner Feldwebel Willie Schopp - were shot down and killed in Messerschmitt Bf 110 G-4 (''Werknummer'' 140320—factory number) on the night of 6/7 August 1944 at Mortain on the Cotentin Peninsula. Flight Lieutenant John Surman, flying a Mosquito of No. 604 Squadron RAF, may have shot them down as he claimed a Bf 110 destroyed. However, friendly fire from the 1st SS ''Leibstandarte'' Panzer division who were launching Operation Lüttich, the counterattack at Mortain may have been responsible.〔Perilous Moon: Occupied France, 1944 - The End Game.
