Thanks for that -Bertram's memoirs, which you kindly translated all these years ago, plus a fine series of never before published photos of his makeshift He111 night fighter and his crew will be published in the volume.

Cheers, Theo

Eastern Front night-fighters - Wittgenstein, Fischer, Bertram
"The first Luftwaffe night fighters on the Eastern Front were the so-called Nachtjagdschwärme Ost. Their organisation was piece-meal - venerable Heinkel He 111s drawn from the Eastern Front Kampfgeschwader with neither search radar -as was usually the case in the west- nor controlled by any kind of ground control as later existed in the shape of the Nachtjagdzüge - the night fighter trains."
