After his last air victory he lost the permission to fly combat missions. He became the first General der Jagdflieger and used new tactics in Russia. When Udet commited suicide he returned to Germany, but his transport plane crashed near Breslau. He died on that 22 November 1941. Galland became his successor.
Here is Mölders:

IIRC, when someone asked Adolf Galland what he needed to win the Battle of Britain, Galland's answer was "a squadron of Spitfires!"

Alder17, are you going to give us all of Hartmann's victories? or would that take up too much time and space.
I wonder how many kills Molders and Galland would have had if they'd flown for the full 4 years against the Russians.
Is strafing a plane on an airfield counted as a kill?
