About Eberhard von Boremski
Von Boremski joined 9./JG 3 in March 1940 and scored his first victories over France that June. Flying over the Soviet Union from 1941, he was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross after reaching 43 aerial victories in May 1942, and went on to further victories over the following two years while serving as Staffelkapitan of 7./JG 3 and later 12./JG 3 - sources differ on his final wartime total. He was wounded in combat twice, in May 1943 and again in April 1944.
