Josef "Pips" Priller ({{IPA-de|ˈpʁɪlɐ|lang}}; 27 July 1915 – 20 May 1961) was a German military aviator and wing commander in the Luftwaffe during World War II. As a fighter ace, he was credited with 101 enemy aircraft shot down in 307 combat missions. All of his victories were claimed over the Western Front, including 11 four-engine bombers and at least 68 Supermarine Spitfire fighters.

Priller joined the military service in the Wehrmacht of Nazi Germany in 1935. Initially serving in the Army, he transferred to the Luftwaffe (Air Force) in 1936. Following flight training, he was posted to Jagdgeschwader 334 (JG 334—334th Fighter Wing) and then to Jagdgeschwader 51 (JG 51—51st Fighter Wing) on 1 May 1939. On 1 September 1939, the day when Germany invaded Poland, he was appointed Squadron Leader of the 6th Squadron of JG 51. He flew in the Battle of France and claimed his first aerial victory on 28 May 1940. He received the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross in October 1940 following his 20th aerial victory which he claimed during the Battle of Britain.

In November 1940, Priller was transferred to Jagdgeschwader 26 "Schlageter" (JG 26—26th Fighter Wing) and was given command of the 1st Squadron. In June and July 1941 he accounted for a further 20 victories, earning him the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves on 19 October 1941. Priller was appointed Group Commander of the III. Gruppe of JG 26 "Schlageter" on 6 December 1941. He claimed his 70th victory on 5 May 1942. Priller became Wing Commander of JG 26 "Schlageter" on 11 January 1943. During the Allied Invasion of Normandy on 6 June 1944 he flew one of the few Luftwaffe missions against the Allied beachhead that day. Priller claimed his 100th victory on 15 June 1944. For this achievement he was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords. During Operation Bodenplatte on 1 January 1945, Priller led an attack on the Allied airfields at Brussels-Evere and Brussels-Grimbergen. On 31 January 1945 Priller was appointed Inspekteur der Jagdflieger West (Inspector of Fighter Pilots West) and ceased operational flying. He held this position until the end of the war in May 1945.

Following the war, Priller managed the family brewery business. He died in 1961.

Early life and career

Priller, who was nicknamed Pips since his early youth, was born on 27 July 1915 in Ingolstadt in the Kingdom of Bavaria, a state of the German Empire. After he graduated with his Abitur (diploma) he joined the military service of the Wehrmacht as a Fahnenjunker (officer candidate) with Infantry-Regiment 20 in Amberg of the 10th Infantry Division on 1 April 1935. Against the will of his battalion commander he transferred to the Luftwaffe as a Oberfähnrich (officer cadet) on 1 October 1936. He then received flight training at the pilot school in Salzwedel.{{Refn|Flight training in the Luftwaffe progressed through the levels A1, A2 and B1, B2, referred to as A/B flight training. A training included theoretical and practical training in aerobatics, navigation, long-distance flights and dead-stick landings. The B courses included high-altitude flights, instrument flights, night landings and training to handle the aircraft in difficult situations. For pilots destined to fly multi-engine aircraft, the training was completed with the Luftwaffe Advanced Pilot's Certificate (Erweiterter Luftwaffen-Flugzeugführerschein), also known as the C-Certificate.{{sfn|Bergström|Antipov|Sundin|2003|p=17}}|group="Note"}}

World War II

World War II in Europe began on Friday, 1 September 1939, when German forces invaded Poland. At the time, II. Gruppe of JG 51 was based at Fürstenfeldbruck and still in its infancy of creation. It was made up of three Staffeln (squadrons) and according to the Luftwaffe nomenclature were named 4., 5. and 6. Staffel. Priller, who had served as Nachrichtenoffizier (communication officer), was appointed Staffelkapitän (squadron leader) on 20 October and tasked with forming of 6. Staffel (6th squadron) at Eutingen im Gäu.{{sfn|Aders|Held|1993|pp=47–48, 249}} On 5 November, 6. Staffel was officially created and became operational.{{sfn|Aders|Held|1993|p=253}} On 9 February 1940, II. Gruppe was moved to Böblingen Airfield where it was subordinated to Jagdgeschwader 52 (JG 52—52nd Fighter Wing) and tasked with patrolling the Upper Rhine region during the Phoney War phase of World War II.{{sfn|Aders|Held|1993|p=48}}

On 11 May 1940, the second day of the Battle of France, II. Gruppe flew ground attack missions in the Alsace region. Following the German advance into Belgium and France, 6. Staffel was moved to Dinant on 26 May. That day, remnants of the French Army and the British Expeditionary Force (BEF) were retreating towards Dunkirk. To save the BEF, the British under the cover of the Royal Air Force (RAF), had launched Operation Dynamo. On 28 May, Priller claimed his first two aerial victories. He was credited with shooting down two RAF fighters over the Dunkirk battle zone.{{sfn|Aders|Held|1993|p=53}} In total, Priller was credited with six aerial victories during the French campaign. This number includes a Supermarine Spitfire and Hawker Hurricane claimed on 28 May, a Curtiss P-36 Hawk on 2 June, two Bristol Blenheim bombers on 8 June, and another Spitfire on 25 June.{{sfn|Prien|Stemmer|Rodeike|Bock|2000|p=285}} This made Priller one of the leading fighter pilots of JG 51 during the Battle of France.{{sfn|Aders|Held|1993|p=59}}

In July 1940, the Luftwaffe began a series of air operations dubbed Kanalkampf (Channel Battle) over the English Channel against the RAF, which marked the beginning of the Battle of Britain. On 14 July, Priller claimed a Hurricane shot down southeast of Dover.{{sfn|Prien|Stemmer|Rodeike|Bock|2002b|p=62}} He was the fourth pilot of JG 51 to receive this distinction.{{sfn|Aders|Held|1993|p=72}}

With Jagdgeschwader 26 "Schlageter"

In November 1940, the Geschwaderkommodore (wing commander) of Jagdgeschwader 26 "Schlageter" (JG 26—26th Fighter Wing), Adolf Galland, used his influence with the Ministry of Aviation (RLM—Reichsluftfahrtministerium) in Berlin and had Priller transferred to JG 26. JG 26 was named after Albert Leo Schlageter, a martyr cultivated by the Nazi Party. Priller arrived with JG 26 on 19 November, taking command of 1. Staffel, a squadron of I. Gruppe, as Staffelkapitän.{{sfn|Caldwell|1996|pp=3, 89}} On 16 June 1941, the RAF flew "Circus" No. 13, targeting Boulogne with six Blenheim bombers, escorted by six squadrons of fighter escort from No. 11 Group. The RAF attack was countered by I. Gruppe and JG 26's Stabsschwarm. During this engagement, Priller claimed a Spitfire and a Blenheim from No. 59 Squadron shot down.{{sfn|Caldwell|1996|pp=133–135}}

Between 16 June and 11 July 1941, Priller claimed 19 RAF aircraft, including 17 Spitfires. On 14 July, RAF "Circus" No. 48 targeted the Hazebrouck motor yards on. The attack force of Blenheim bombers was escorted by Spitfire fighters. Priller attacked the fighters of No. 72 Squadron south of Dunkirk and shot down one of the Spitfires from dead ahead, taking his total to 40 aerial victories.{{sfn|Caldwell|1996|p=151}} His 41st aerial victory had been claimed over another No. 72 Squadron Spitfire on 19 July {{Convert|5|km|mi|abbr=off}} off Dover.{{sfn|Caldwell|1996|p=153}}

Group commander

On 22 November 1941, Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring informed Galland that he would succeed Oberst Werner Mölders as General der Jagdflieger (General of the Fighter Arm), a staff position with the RLM in Berlin.{{sfn|Caldwell|1996|p=192}} In consequence of this decision, on 6 December, Major Gerhard Schöpfel, Gruppenkommandeur (group commander) of III. Gruppe was appointed Geschwaderkommodore of JG 26, and Priller was given command of III. Gruppe, and Oberleutnant Josef Haiböck took over 1. Staffel.{{sfn|Caldwell|1996|p=195}} On 11 December, Priller was one of the first pilots to receive a then new Focke-Wulf Fw 190 A-2 radial engine powered fighter aircraft, testing it on nineteen flights before year's end.{{sfn|Caldwell|1996|p=195}}

Priller engaged in combat for the first time while flying the Fw 190 on 3 January 1942. On a test flight, he claimed a Hurricane shot down {{Convert|5|km|mi|abbr=on}} northwest of Calais.{{sfn|Caldwell|1996|p=196}} On 1 May, Fighter Command ordered one "Circus" and four "Rodeos" to France. III. Gruppe was scrambled and attacked elements of the Kenley Wing near Calais. During this attack, III. Gruppe claimed four aerial victories, one of which by Priller who shot down a Spitfire {{Convert|5|km|mi|abbr=on}} north of Calais.{{sfn|Caldwell|1996|pp=236–237}}

On 9 October, Priller for the first time encountered heavy bombers of the United States Strategic Air Forces (USAAF). Misjudging the size of the bombers, he underestimated their altitude and had to make three approaches before coming into an attack position. Attacking from the rear, Priller shot down a Consolidated B-24 Liberator from the 93d Bombardment Group.{{sfn|Caldwell|1996|p=293}} On 20 December, Priller claimed his 81st aerial victory when he shot down a Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress bomber from the 91st Bombardment Group over the Baie de la Seine.{{sfn|Caldwell|1996|p=315}} That day, the USAAF VIII Bomber Command, later renamed to Eighth Air Force, had targeted Lille with 101 B-17s and B-24s.{{sfn|Caldwell|1996|p=314}}

Wing commander

On 8 January, at a Luftwaffe conference in Berlin, General der Jagdflieger (General of the Fighter Arm) Galland informed Geschwaderkommodore Schöpfel that he was to be transferred to staff position with Jagdfliegerführer Bretagne and that Priller would be replacing Schöpfel as Geschwaderkommodore of JG 26. Priller was also told that JG 26 was scheduled to be deployed on the Eastern Front.{{sfn|Caldwell|1998|p=9}} On 10 January, Priller took over command of JG 26. His first task was to work out the plans for the transfer to the Eastern Front. The original idea was to transfer the various Gruppen of JG 26 in exchange for the Gruppen of Jagdgeschwader 54 (JG 54—54th Fighter Wing) which were planned to move west.{{sfn|Caldwell|1998|p=11}} By March 1943, the first Gruppe to arrive on the Western Front had been III. Gruppe of JG 54. Since the combat conditions on the Western Front differed from those on the Eastern Front, a smooth transition of units proved to be more difficult than expected. Priller's reports to Galland were pessimistic of the idea and in consequence, on 27 March, Galland postponed the decision to exchange units, a plan that was later cancelled.{{sfn|Caldwell|1998|pp=38–39}}

On 19 August, VIII Bomber Command sent a number of B-17 bombers in an attack on Luftwaffe airfields at Woensdrecht, Gilze-Rijen and Souburg. The attack force was escorted by ten squadrons of Spitfires during the approach and two groups of Republic P-47 Thunderbolt fighters over the target areas, and two further groups of P-47s during the return. Priller led his Stabsschwarm and 8. Staffel in this engagement. Avoiding combat with the 56th Fighter Group, he lead his flight in a frontal attack on the B-17 bombers which resulted in the destruction of two B-17s from the 305th Bombardment Group.{{sfn|Caldwell|1998|pp=141–142}}

On 20 October, Priller attacked a 96th Bombardment Group B-17 bomber its mission to Düren and shot it out of formation. This Herausschuss (separation shot)—the damaged heavy bomber was forced to separate from its combat box—was counted as an aerial victory by the Luftwaffe.{{sfn|Caldwell|1998|p=168}} In late 1943, in parallel to his obligations as Geschwaderkommodore, Priller served as interims Jagdfliegerführer 4, the commander of the fighter forces of Luftflotte 3.{{sfn|Caldwell|Muller|2007|p=81}}

On 6 June 1944 (D-Day), Priller, accompanied by his wingman made a single strafing pass attack on Sword Beach in their Focke-Wulf Fw 190A-8s. This act was first brought to the world's attention by the book, then the film, The Longest Day. Contrary to popular belief, Priller and his wingman (Sgt. Wodarczyk) were not the only Luftwaffe forces to attack the beachhead that day. Both Luftwaffe Hauptmann (Captain) Helmut Eberspächer, leading a ground-attack four-plane element of Fw 190s of Schnellkampfgeschwader 10, which downed a quartet of RAF Avro Lancasters at 05:00 over the invasion area, and the Luftwaffe bomber wing Kampfgeschwader 54 made several attacks on the British beachheads on D-Day.

The Eighth Air Force attacked various tactical targets in France on 15 June. To counter this attack, Jagdfliegerführer 5 dispatched the German fighters at dawn. Priller and his wingman, Unteroffizier Heinz Wodarczyk, joined II. Gruppe, heading for the area west of Caen and encountered the USAAF heavy bombers just as they were crossing the French coast. Avoiding the escort fighters, Priller attacked the first combat box of about twenty B-24 bombers from the front. Priller shot down a B-24 from the 492nd Bomb Group flying in the left outboard position at 07:10 west of Dreux and southwest of Chartres. This aerial victory was Priller's 100th claim.{{sfn|Caldwell|1998|pp=277–278, 280}} He was the 77th Luftwaffe pilot to achieve the century mark.{{sfn|Obermaier |1989|p=243}}

On 28 January 1945, Priller left JG 26 and was replaced as Geschwaderkommodore of JG 26 by Major Franz Götz. Priller was appointed as Inspector of Day Fighters (West), a staff position with the Inspector of Fighters.{{sfn|Caldwell|1998|p=424}}

After the war

After the war, Priller studied brewery at the Weihenstephan Science Centre for Life & Food Sciences, Land Use and Environment (WZW), a department of the Technical University of Munich. Following graduation, he became general manager of a brewery after his marriage to the owner, Johanna Riegele-Priller. He was one of several D-day combatants to advise on the making of the film The Longest Day, in which he was portrayed by Heinz Reincke.^[1] He died on 20 May 1961 from a heart attack in Böbing, Upper Bavaria. He was buried at the Westfriedhof (western cemetery) in Augsburg.{{sfn|MacLean|2007|p=236}} The street "Josef-Priller-Straße" in Augsburg and Fürstenfeldbruck were named after him.^[2]^[3]^[4] His oldest son Sebastian became head of the Riegele-Brewery in 1991.{{sfn|Augsburger Allgemeine|2009}}

Summary of career

Aerial victory claims

Priller flew 307 combat missions to claim 101 victories. All his victories were recorded over the Western Front, and consisted of 11 USAAF heavy bombers, 68 Spitfires (the highest Luftwaffe ace's tally for this type), 11 Hurricanes, five medium bombers and five USAAF fighters. Matthews and Foreman, authors of Luftwaffe Aces — Biographies and Victory Claims, researched the German Federal Archives and found records for 100 aerial victory claims, plus three further unconfirmed claims. All of his victories were claimed on the Western Front and includes ten four-engined bombers.{{sfn|Matthews|Foreman|2015|pp=982–983}}

Victory claims were logged to a map-reference (PQ = Planquadrat), for example "PQ 05 Ost ML-7". The Luftwaffe grid map ({{lang|de|Jägermeldenetz}}) covered all of Europe, western Russia and North Africa and was composed of rectangles measuring 15 minutes of latitude by 30 minutes of longitude, an area of about {{Convert|360|sqmi|sqkm}}. These sectors were then subdivided into 36 smaller units to give a location area 3 × 4 km in size.{{sfn|Planquadrat}}
