Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

Next I'll try to compile a list of I./LG 1 > V./LG 1 StaKa.

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

Good afternoon Evgeny, excellent work so far, may i say.
Please continue with your lists and hopefully, the not so clearer names may be clarified by the other experts, who frequent this great site!

Best regards,
Steve.

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

I.(Z)/LG 1>V.(Z)/LG 1

13.(Z)/LG 1

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

Hi,

Hptm. Hans von Boltenstern (transferred from the unit on the 26.06.40 or 26.08.40)
Hptm. Alexander Mauke Sick 08.08.40
Olt.Michel Junge KIA 04.09.40

Regards

Robert

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

THX. From LG 1? 28.08.40 then. And what Staffel flew Hptm. Hans von Boltenstern and Hptm. Alexander Mauke?

Next ones list will be about I./ZG 2 + I./ZG 52>II./ZG 2.

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

He was shot down right over Gatwick aerodrome by Sgt Josef Frantisek of 303 Sqn. He brought a parachute taken from the wreck, and a bit of it, autographed by fellow pilots, was held in Sqn collection and now is a museum piece here in Poland. I believe I have his combat report.

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

THX, Franek. Updated.

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

Evgeny,

they were all Stakas of the 14th Staffel.

Robert

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

Robert, thx. Could You tell pls from what date to what date they were StaKas?

Hptm. Alexander Mauke Sick 17.0540 > 08.08.40
Hptm. Hans von Boltenstern 08.08.40 > 26.08.40

Correct?

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

Hi,

I think von Boltenstern was first and left unit rather on the 26.06.40.

Regards

Robert

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

robert,

Where did von Boltenstern go between 26.6.40 (when you say he left V.(Z)/LG 1) and late August 40, when he tok up post as second Gruppenkommandeur of Erprobungsgruppe 210?

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

Yes, thx John for correct.

He came Gruppenkommandeur Erpr.Gr210 on 16 August 40 (not 26 August 40 as I thought).

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

THX FalkeEins.

This one? As I mentioned before, there are lots of mistakes in my list, and I VERY appreciate such corrections.

So, his name is Oblt. Friedrich Müer, not Meier?

I have his 3 claims, and thought his name is Meier.

26.06.44 Oblt. Meier 6./ZG 1 B-24  14 Ost N/CO-5: 6.500 m. [N.W. Pressburg] 09.49 Film C. 2027/II Anerk: Nr.71
22.02.44 Oblt. Meier 6./ZG 1 B-24  S. Pilsen: 6.500 m. [Bohemia] 12.52 Film C. 2025/I Anerk: Nr.51
22.02.44 Oblt. Meier 6./ZG 1 B-24  südl. Pilsen: 6.500 m. [Bohemia] 12.12 Film C. 2025/I Anerk: Nr.52

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

Hi John,

I don`t know.

Regards

Robert

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

No he didn't. When Rubensdörffer was KIA on 15/8/40, Martin Lutz became acting-Gruppenkommandeur until the posting-in of von Boltenstern on 26/8/40. When von Boltenstern was lost on 4/9/40 Lutz once again became acting-Gruppenkommandeur until he was made substantial in the post on 7/9/40.

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

THX John :) Was hard for me, but now I understand all organisation changes :)

Could You pls help with StaKa list of Erpr.Gr.210? With direct dates, if possible ("from" - "to"). Have "white blob" with 2nd and 3rd Staffel...

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

Evgeny,

Give me a bit of time, and I will scan the page from an Appendix in 'Bombsights Over England' with all the details I have of the Staka of Erpr. Gr. 210. This will include those who were acting-Staka.

Changing the subject slightly. I notified you of my views about the victory claims of Eduard Tratt, and the fact that it was unlikely that he was over central/west southern coast of England in August 1940 if he was with Erpr. Gr. 210. Now Larry Hickey's post places him with ZG 2, so it becomes reasonable to accept his claims in that area at that time, because ZG 2 DID fly operations in that area of England (with the caveat that ZG 2 appeared to heavily overclaim victories). What this does do, is call into question the previously held belief that he was with Erpr. Gr. 210 in July 1940.

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

Robert,

I just asked the question in case you knew some details of his movement that I was not aware of. We are all still learning new things.

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

Abschussanerkennung Luftsieg 22.02.44 Oblt. Friedrich Müer 6./ZG 1

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

2 John:

THX. About Your book, I HOPE next month will be ok with my job, and I will be able to buy it whole. IF all will be ok of coarse :) Need to quit smoking to have some more money for books :) 35$ for one book from my monthly 200 is... Uhhh :)

FalkeEins:

Yes, directly the same person. THX for scan. It means there is a mistake in Tony Woods list.

Do You know, how many total victories he had? In list there are (in close period) two maches: Oblt. Müller and Oblt. Meier, and Meier's last name is incorrect. May be Oblt. Müller is incorrect too, and he is Oblt. Müer too?

Evgeny,

Here it is:

Hope this helps

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

!!!! THX a lot!!!! :)

Dont beleive my eyes - Gr.Adj. from 6.10.40 - Ltn. Herrmann, is he Wilfried Herrmann, later StaKa 3./ZG 1 and Gr.Kdr. I./ZG 1?

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

Evgeny,

Can't be sure, but Lt. Herrmann definitely signed the Namentliche Verlustmeldungen as Gr. Adj. from 6.10.40 onwards.

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

V./LG 1 and Erprobungsgruppe 210 lists updated. THX for help gentlemen.

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

Hi Evgeny,

13(Z)/LG1 Hptm.Hellmut Peters (the last one?)

15(Z)/LG1 Olt.Walter Clausen KIA 22.04.40

But I really not sure in last.
Oblt. Fritz Sengschmitt was transferred to 2./ZG 1 from KG 2, and he already had RK. But I have no date of this trasffer.
After 2./ZG 1 was renamed in 2./ZG 26 in october 1943, he becane StaKa 2./ZG 26, and KIA on 11.Jan.44 in Luftkampf.

Re: Zerstorer StaKa list:
 

THX Robert!

Updated.

Now making III./ZG 26 list.

I was not right about Hptm. Horst Lehrmann. He was not Gr.Kd., but Gr. Adj. of I./ZG 26.

1941 information is very small. But I look forward on "Second formation" in 1943, and it is even worth. Almost 0 information.
