Am I correct in thinking that you used to provide a downloadable PDF of the notes derived from each DEFE 3 file? I found these very helpful but can no longer see these. I appreciate it's not a massive amount of extra effort to create my own but just wondered as to the driver for this decision.

Steve,

I still produce a pdf version but only distributed that via e-mail.

On the earlier site I suffered from issues related to some of the downloads.

If you would like the pdf version send me a pm with your e-mail address and I'll send you the file. (I have a Word version as well..)

Given that production of this one was delayed for nearly a year, due to other commitments, don't hold your breath waiting for the next one....

Steve,

I have updated each of the individual DEFE 3 pages to now include a link to a pdf version of the notes.

Hope that this helps.

Thanks for reading

Good morning,

Since the last full update the following changes have taken place on the Luftwaffedata Wiki:-

1. As indicated on my post of 25th Feb all of the DEFE3 pages have been updated to include links to downloadable pdf copies of the notes. Thanks to Steve Coates for drawing my attention to the lack of those pdf files since the new site had been built.

2. Update to Aufkl. Gr. 123 1943 for 4 to 10 Jan 1943 ; 11 Jan 1943; 13 Mar 1943; 23 to 26 Mar 1943 and 28 to 30 Mar 1943. Majority of the information derived from DEFE 3 files.

3. New page created in memory of Siegfried Hagen, a member of 6.(F)/122 who was lost in a crash on 22.11.44 - information and documents kindly supplied by Ulrich Habermann, Siegfried's nephew.

4. Update to Aufkl. Gr. 123 1942 for 24 Dec 1942 covering the loss of Fw Alois Ripplinger and Lt. Bernhard Frank - photo of Ripplinger included together with the 486 (NZ) Sqdn combat report. Thanks to Dave Wadman for the documents and the detail.

and last but not least -

5. New pages created for the Nahaufklärungsgruppen including Reconciliation of Formation Data; Staffeln Subordinated; Aufklärungsstaffeln - Disbandment & Redesignation and Nahaufklärungsgruppen - Reconciliation as of 5 July 1943. In addition pages for the following units have also been created - Nahaufklärungsgruppe 1; Stab/NAGr. 1; 1./NAGr. 1; 2./NAGr. 1; 3./NAGr. 1; Nahaufklärungsgruppe 2; Stab/NAGr. 2; 1./NAGr. 2; 2./NAGr. 2 and 3./NAGr. 2.

Steve,

Many thanks for your support.

Will be uploading more changes in the coming weeks.

Work has started on the next DEFE3 file as well.

Re: LuftwaffeData Wiki
 

Amazing work with the NAGr.! Thank you so much :)

Re: LuftwaffeData Wiki
 

Schlageter,

Many thanks for the kind comments - the NAGr. is all Larry's work, I am just the means of getting it out there.

There is much more to come.
