>>3913357I am actually incredibly grateful that we could get Krupi's perspective on this.
Q: You flew with Krupinski as his wingman often. What was that like, and how different was it from flying with Rossmann?
A: Well, the partnership was a little uneasy at first, but we found that we worked well together. We both had strengths and weaknesses and managed to overcome these problems. It worked out well. Besides, I had to make sure that he came home due to his many girlfriends always waiting on him to come down. I won the Iron Cross 2nd Class while flying with "Krupi." The one thing I learned from him was that the worst thing to do was to lose a wingman. Kills were less important than survival.
