Egbert, new information may yet appear in Findbuch 12452 - Oberkommando der Luftwaffe (OKL). It is slowly appearing on the website, again:

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Guys,

New Findbuch on GermanDocs - Findbuch 12477 - Infanterie- und Sicherungsdivisionen der Wehrmacht, 1934-1945

Not sure if there will be anything Luftwaffe related hidden therein.

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

And finally Findbuch 12452 - Oberkommando der Luftwaffe (OKL) is now online !

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Thanks Mihai

Hope some of the missing items are there - those that were not in the torrent.

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

I already found some "new" things, albeit nothing groundbreaking, will try to compare this evening the list with the initiali leak.

All the best

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

On the surface, it appears to be 90% material from 1930-40?

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Yes, unfortunately :)

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Item 453 is about air supply to Breslau in April 1945, however.

The attached telegram for example mentions an emergency landing by Fw 190 "white 14" of 2./SG 77 on Breslau's "Platz 10" on 22 April.

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

And a message from Hermann Graf …

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

The Lageberichten from 1939 til 1941+ are worth a bit more than nil..

Heeresgruppe Mitte is back online and has some LW related materiel.

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Dear all,

Glad to note that the Heeresgruppe Mitte files are back online. I have gone through much of the material but failed to find any Daily Reports for October 1943 and further on -I had hoped these would be also put online by the excellent people at TsAMO as these records will contain Luftflotte 6 reports on the employment-results-losses of the Nachtjäger in the Central sector of the Eastern Front during the final three months of 1943 and for 1944. Could anyone advise me if these files are available at all at TsAMO, and if so, when these will be put online?

Cheers and thanks for any news on this matter, which will be crucially important for my further research on the Nachtjagd on the Eastern Front for one of the coming volumes in the Nachtjagd Combat Archive series.

Kriegsmarine is online now.

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Junker,

Many thanks for the heads-up on this.

If anyone downloaded the torrent for this a while ago there are several Kriegsmarine files on the TSAMO pages that are not included in the torrent e.g. Akte 1, 2, 4,5, 8, 10,....98, 100 and 101 etc.

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

A nice gem in the Kriegsmarine dossier among others, a victory claim submitted by a BV 138 pilot from 3./SAGr.125 against a VVS DB-3 over the Black Sea.

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

During a torpedo attack on a convoy on 15.11.43 1 Il-4 (Kap. Panin & crew; 3 KIA) of 5 GMTAP ChF was s/d reportedly by flak of the rumanian gunboat Dumitrescu at 44.48N-30.52E.
6 Il-4 (Lobanov, Presich, Fedorov, Minakov, Panin, Sinitsin) attacked a convoy cosisting of 2 transports (DANUBIUS, KT-25), 2 gunboats (STIKHI, DUMITRESCU), 1 A/S trawler (UJ 115), 2 auxiliary subchasers (KFK 11 & KFK 12) 10 miles SE Cape Burnas with 6 aerial torpedoes at 14.35h and claimed 1 transport of 3,000t sunk for 1 Il-4 lost. In fact no axis vessel was lost or damaged.

Cheers

Michael

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Hello Michael,

According to KTB Deutschen Marinekommandos Konstantza, should be find out, whether the plane shot down by Dumitrescu and by BV138 is the same aircraft [it was the same Il-4 indeed]

Best regards,
Andrey

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Hello Andrey, thanks for responding, I´ll take a look into the docs you helped providing...

Cheers

Michael

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

I don't think anyone has posted this little gem so far:
http://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/r...inspect/zoom/4

Goebbels personal letter to Hans-Ulrich Rudel's concering the latters' request to return to frontline action.

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Thank you!

The document was found out on the battlefield not later than 19.Apr.45 in the sector of 1.Byelorussian Front.
I wonder where it exactly was.
By the way, the author isn't Goebbels but A.Fuhr.

Best regards,
Andrey

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Thank you for this find, NagaSadow!

Regards,

Dan

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Thanks for pointing that one out. Something else on the reel of possible interest—although off-topic for TOCH—is the list (starting at frame 245) of men posted missing from SS-Panzergrenadier Ausbildung und Ersatz Bataillon 16 during the Battle of Arnhem.

Also in the OKH files, item 441 is a set of graphs about the Romanian air defences (Flak and fighters), plus data on the production and delivery of Bf 109 G-6.

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

For those interested in Norway/J.G. 5 Eismeer/Tirpitz/Ehrler
Findbuch 12453 - Oberkommando der Kriegsmarine (OKM) Akte 79
should be very interesting. A whole file about the RAF attack in November 1944 and the Luftwaffe's defense.

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Thank you for this interesting documents regarding Norway
Have a fine summer

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Thank you, NagaSadow!

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Does anyone know what the status of the project is ? It's been quite a while since nothing has been uploaded and there are still quite a bit of documents in the list :

https://www.ifz-muenchen.de/fileadmi...9cbersicht.pdf

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Two new entries :

Findbuch 12464 - Heeresgruppen Nr. 1-6 ( only early stuff, 1939 etc )
Findbuch 12463 - Reichsministerien und andere Behörden des deutschen Reiches, 1917-1945

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Thanks Mihal,

Looking at Akte 198 in that series, there's a lot there about aircraft production and repair in the occupied territories.

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Nick

Thanks. Definitely merits in depth study.

Steve

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Thanks Mihai,


Findbuch 12463 Akte 201 is certainly for the respected authors of "Luftwaffe Officer Career Summaries".


Best regards,
Andrey

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Thank you, Andrey! I am just now finishing Akten 1 - 80 of Findbuch 12476, which is full of officers belonging to Gen.Kdo. I. Flakkorps and its subordinate units April 1942 to September 1944, and so far I have extracted 1,744 names with their assignments. So your Akte 201/12463 will be a welcome addition to these. It's exactly what we are looking for!

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

On it and loading...

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Hello

Findbuch 12473 - AOK 11-25 is available now

Some interesting information. Mention of 15 claims in a day by Ltn. August Lambert of II./S.G. 2

http://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/d...inspect/zoom/4

Note that the daily total of claims is almost twice more than in Tony Wood's claim lists

Re: German docs in TSAMO
 

Thank you for the update Andrei ! There are 3 new series in total uploaded

TSAMO: German Docs in Russia
 

Only 46 pages and no German title but there are some interesting items in Дело 290 which seems to relate to German liaison with the Allied and Russian authorities right after the surrender, covering Schleswig-Holstein, Denmark and Norway. Two sample pages attached.

Re: TSAMO: German Docs in Russia
 

if you find anything related to the He 219 Nick...

Re: TSAMO: German Docs in Russia
 

I've just posted cleaned-up versions of the two attachments and you'll see that in Luftgau XI they say there were 46 x He 219 surrendered to the Allies plus another 8 in Denmark.

Something tells me that "46" is a typo, maybe for 16, but I leave that to the experts.

Re: TSAMO: German Docs in Russia
 

nice! Thanks Nick

Re: TSAMO: German Docs in Russia
 

From a more detailed listing:

He 219 captured in Northern Germany:
43 Westerland
1 Husum
2 Blankensee

He 219 captured in Denmark:
7 Grove
1 Kastrup
