at Hamburg. Böwing-Treuding participated in the invasion of Russia serving
with JG 51. Leutnant Böwing-Treuding was assigned to 8./JG 51. He recorded
his first victory on 13 July when he shot down a Russian DB-3 twin-engine
bomber. Böwing-Treuding recorded one further victory with this unit, a
Russian SB-3 twin engine bomber shot down on 29 July. By late August 1941,
Leutnant Böwing-Treuding, was serving with 12./JG 51. He recorded his first
victory with his new unit on 28 August, when he shot down a Russian SB-2
twin-engine bomber for his third victory. Böwing-Treuding claimed a Russian
I-61 fighter shot down on 17 December to record his 10th victory. By June
1942, Böwing Treuding was serving with the Stabsstaffel of IV./JG 51. He
had 17 victories to his credit at this time. On 1 August, Böwing-Treuding

Sturmovik ground-attack aircraft shot down (34-36). By the end of 1942,
he had raised his victory total to 39. On 11 February 1943, Böwing Treuding
