All;
I'm unsure why RCU insists upon removing spaces from my cut and pasted posts; but it's getting a bit annoying. Especially when I edit the post to add extra spaces where they are deleted... and it still doesn't work. Any ideas? Thanks; Ernie P.

You nailed it, Hydro Junkie. Erich Lowenhardt it is, and you are up. Lowenhardt is almost unknown, despite being Germany's third highest scoring ace of WWI. If not for the mid-air collision which resulted in his death, he might well have been Germany's second ace. Thanks; Ernie P.

Answer: Erich Lφwenhardt
ErichLφwenhardt (7 April1897 – 10 August 1918) was the 3rd highest Germanflying ace with 54 victories during the First World War, behind only Manfred vonRichthofen and Ernst Udet.
Lφwenhardt was born in Breslau, Silesia, German Empire on 7 April 1897, the son of a doctor. He received his education at amilitary school in Lichterfelde. He was 17 when hostilities erupted inAugust 1914 and was assigned to the German Army's Infantry Regiment Nr. 141; hesaw infantry action on the Eastern Front with them. Young Lφwenhardt was woundednear Łσdź but remained on duty as standard bearer for his regiment as it fought in the Battle of Tannenberg. As reward for his courage, on 2 October1914 he was commissioned. On 30 October he was both wounded anddecorated with the Iron Cross Second Class. After convalescing, hereturned to his unit in the Carpathians. In early 1915 he received the Iron Cross 1st Class for saving the lives of five wounded men. Lφwenhardt thentransferred to the Alpine Corps on the Italian Front. However, he fell ill and was invalidedfrom service as unfit for duty.
After five months' recuperation,Lφwenhardt volunteered for the Imperial German Army Air Service and qualified as an aerial observer. He then completed pilot training in 1916. Service in two-seaters with Flieger-Abteilung (Artillerie) (FlierDetachment (Artillery)) 265 followed. In January 1917, he underwent conversiontraining for fighters. He joined a fighter squadron, Jagdstaffel10 in March 1917. On 24March 1917, Lφwenhardt scored his first confirmed aerial victory, destroying anenemy observation balloon over Recicourt.
Lφwenhardt was an aggressive,skilled fighter whose score grew steadily. During this period, he flew Albatros and Pfalz planes. By the end of September he was an ace.He survived a forced landing on 20 September with a minor wound; the next day,he shot down his fifth victim. He posted two more claims in October, one ofwhich was confirmed. On 6 November, his aircraft's lower wing was damagedduring combat over Winkel Saint Eloi at 0830 hours, a dud antiaircraft shellsmashing his left wingtip without exploding. Lφwenhardt pulled his craft out ofthe resulting spin at 15 meters altitude, wheels down, and bounced into atumbling wreck. He exited the wreckage shaken but otherwise unharmed. On 30November 1917, he closed out his year with his eighth confirmed victory; he wascredited with four balloons and four airplanes.
Lφwenhardt scored two morevictims in January 1918: a balloon and a Bristol F.2 Fighter. In March, he added five more. On 1April, just before his 21st birthday, he was appointed to command Jasta 10. The next month, Jasta 10 re-equipped with new Fokker D.VIIs. Lφwenhardt continued to score; on 10 May, he destroyed an observationballoon for his 20th victory and became eligible for the Pour le Merite. The next day, he was awarded theKnight's Cross with Swords of the House Order ofHohenzollern; he alsoreceived the Austro-HungarianEmpire's Military MeritCross. The Pour le Merite (commonly called theBlue Max) came on 31 May 1918, when Lφwenhardt's tally had reached 24.
By now, Lφwenhardt was lockedinto an "ace race" with Ernst Udet and Lothar von Richthofen for the honor of being the top scoringace in their fighter wing. The rivalry between Lφwenhardt and theyounger Richthofen was a friendly one, as they often flew as wingmen. Jasta 10 belonged to The Flying Circus, and when the wing commander's spot came open on29 June 1918, Oberleutnant Lφwenhardt was tapped for temporarycommand of it. By then, his tally stood at 27. When he surrendered the JG Icommand on 6 July, it had risen to 34. By the end of July 1918, Lφwenhardt'stotal was 48: 9 balloons and 39 airplanes.
On 8 August, the Allied Forceslaunched the war's final offensive against the Germans. The British Royal Air Force led the assault, and Lφwenhardt downed three of their airplanes. On the9th, he shot down two more. On the 10th, flying despite a badly sprained ankle,Lφwenhardt launched his yellow Fokker D.VII on a mid-day sortie leading a patrol heavily weighted with rookiepilots. He encountered No. 56 Squadron RAF and shot down a Royal AircraftFactory SE.5a over Chaulnes, France at1215 hours for his 54th victory. In the aftermath of the combat, he collidedwith another German pilot, LeutnantAlfred Wenz from Jasta11. Lφwenhardt's Fokker'slanding gear slammed the upper right wing on Wenz's D.VII. Both pilots' planes wereequipped with parachutes and both pilots bailed out. Erich Lφwenhardt's chute failed to open, andthe fall killed him.
