In 1941, he married Gertrud, and shortly afterwards went to the Air Force. At the age of 105, he said: I was lucky, I didn't get wounded and survived the one year in captivity in Italy reasonably well. In 1953, he moved to Borbeck, Essen with his family. They had a small apartment in Furstabtissinstrasse in Essen-Borbeck-Mitte, where he still lived at the age of 105.
