Re: Ergänzungs Jagdgruppe West

Hi Larry,

You are correct, I just checked my file, and he was posted to take over Ergaenzungsstaffel Jagdgeschwader 3 late in 1940.

Hi VtwinVince, where was your uncle based in 45? Which Staffel he flew?
Thanks

Do you know, in when exactly he was member of JGr. West?
I have some group pictures of JGr. West, showing at least one other pilot of JG5 transfered to this unit. Pictures taken about september 1943.

Hi Rolf,

According to the Flugbuch, he was assigned to 13. EJG 1 on 25.2.1945, which was then renamed 17. EJG 1 in April. He flew from Erding and Muenchen-Riem mostly, on ME 109 G6, G12 and G14. The entries go up to April 13, 1945.
