Hubertus von Bonin (born 3 August 1911, Potsdam – 15 December 1943) was a German Second World War fighter ace who served in the ''Luftwaffe''. A flying or fighter ace is a military aviator credited with shooting down five or more enemy aircraft during aerial combat.〔Spick 1996, pp. 3–4.〕 Bonin is credited with shooting down 77 enemy aircraft. The majority of his victories were claimed over the Eastern Front. He also claimed four victories in Spain during the civil war. His commands included ''Geschwaderkommodore'' of Jagdgeschwader 54 (JG 54—54th Fighter Wing). ==Military career== Bonin transferred to the Condor Legion in the fall of 1938, replacing Werner Mölders as ''Staffelkapitän'' (Squadron Leader) of the ''3./Jagdgruppe 88'' on 5 December 1938. During the course of the Spanish Civil War he claimed four republican fighter aircraft shot down, for which he was awarded the Spanish Cross in Gold with Swords. After his return from Spain, Bonin took command of the ''5./Jagdgeschwader 26'' (JG 26) and was made ''Gruppenkommandeur'' (Group Commander) of the ''I./Jagdgeschwader 54'' (JG 54). He claimed his first aerial victory of the Second World War on 11 May 1940. By mid September 1940 he had claimed eight British fighter aircraft and bombers. For three months, from 1 July 1941, he served with ''Jagdfliegerschule 4'' (fighter pilot training school Nr. 4). He then took command of the ''III./Jagdgeschwader 52'' (JG 52) on the Eastern Front. He claimed his thirtieth aerial victory on 17 November 1942 and was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross (''Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes'') after 51 aerial victories. He was appointed ''Geschwaderkommodore'' of JG 54 on 6 July 1943.〔Obermaier 1989, p. 91.〕 Bonin was killed in action on 15 December 1943 near Vitebsk, in a fight with Soviet P-39 Airacobras.〔Weal 2001, p. 107.〕 His father, ''Luftwaffe Oberst'' Bogislaw von Bonin, was taken prisoner of war in March 1945 and has been declared missing ever since. Bonin's brother, Jürgen-Oskar von Bonin, was killed in action while serving as an observer in a transport ''Geschwader''. Another brother, Major Eckart-Wilhelm von Bonin, also a Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross recipient, was a night fighter ace with 37 kills who survived the war.
