This is accidentely an extract of Carsten Petersen's (post #7) German text. The Lw KBK units were: from 07, 08/1939 on: --Luftwaffen-Propaganda-Kompanien Nr. 1 - 4 in Berlin, Braunschweig, München und Wien. --for Luftwaffenkommando Ostpreußen one indipendend Propaganda-Zug in Königsberg. 1940: --Luftwaffen-Kriegsberichter-Kompanien Nr. 5 - 8 --Fallschirm-Kriegsberichter-Kompanie --Luftwaffen-Kriegsberichter-Kompanie z.b.V. 1943 - mid 1944: Disbanding of all Luftwaffen-Kriegsberichter-Kompanien and reorganised into Luftwaffen-Kriegsberichter-Abteilungen. At that time the Luftwaffe had eight (8) Luftwaffen-Kriegsberichter-Abteilungen with approx. 25 Kriegsberichter-Züge, the Luftwaffen-Kriegsberichter-Zug "Hermann Göring" and 6-8 Propaganda Züge. End of 1944: Restructuring and inclusion of remaining Luftwaffen-Kriegsberichter-Abteilungen and LwKB-Züge into Wehrmacht-KB-Abt, Wehrmacht-KB-Zge and Wehrmacht-Propaganda-Zge, but retaining their branch assignement. |
Re: Unknown emblem
Hi Gents,
I didn't imagine this question would reach that far. I guess it was necessary. At that point, I want to thank Chuck, Sidney, Carsten and Christian again. Very interesting and valuable. Left (at least) another point: what was the use of the small aircraft - small for what I know so far - in that organization? Aerial views ? Cheers, Franck. |
Re: Unknown emblem
Most likely, that "small" plane (e.g. Zlin212) was just used for fast distribution of urgent material or light, fast, general transport/ liason. It seems very unlikely that they would fly an active/ live recce mission on any bigger scale with such a small plane.

Yes Christian, indeed.
