Duo Hermann: Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring and Major Hermann Graf in the event of the 50th birthday of the Oberbefehlshaber der Luftwaffe, 12 January 1943. In July 1943, Göring asked Graf to set up a special high-altitude fighter unit to contend with British de Havilland Mosquito light bombers. Geschwaderkommodore Graf was granted the authority to select any member he wished for the new Jagdgruppe 50, which would operate out of Wiesbaden-Erbenheim Airdrome. Graf chose close friend and wingman Alfred Grislawski, as well as Ernst Süss and Heinrich Füllgrabe, to form the ‘Karaya Quartet.’
