Aircraft and personnel strength reports
 

Hi, guys!

Currently done some work on strength reporting in the Luftwaffe - and looking for more variants of these files.

Please have a look at the latest installation here:

I have such reports - a few - from Luftflotte 5. Anyone with access to similar reports from other units?

Regards,
Andreas B

Hello Andreas!

Thank you, interesting and useful as always.

Hope something like these reports will be discovered about Lfl.4 2Q 1943.

Hi Andreas,

I have some reports from Kriegsmarine archives giving complete unit locations for Luftflotte 3 for several dates from 08.04.1942 to 18.11.1942,
totally 12 such reports. However, they do not contain any info on equipment or strength. Two sample pages attached.

Re: Aircraft and personnel strength reports
 

Thank you, Seaplanes for your post. I found it quite valuable.





Best,
Ed

Re: Aircraft and personnel strength reports
 

Seaplanes, it's nice material and in the inventory list of the BA hard to find.
How many pages has RM 35/II 133 in total?

Jaap

Re: Aircraft and personnel strength reports
 

If you want to find it in BASYS, type in RM 35-II/133.

Re: Aircraft and personnel strength reports
 

Hi Seaplane, last dokument is of spesial interest, first time 11(H) Jg26 is mentioned. Do you have any confirmed date? 8.4.42 as on of the other documents? And stationed at st. omer - wizernes

Yes, I know, but BASYS 2 - Invenio does not give information about the number of pages.

Re: Aircraft and personnel strength reports
 

Ah OK - sorry. A file page count is very wishful thinking.

Re: Aircraft and personnel strength reports
 

The file contained little of interest but for the Luftflotte 3 listings from April to November 1942.
Here is the one for 18. November 1942.

Re: Aircraft and personnel strength reports
 

Followed by the one for 25. October 1942.

Re: Aircraft and personnel strength reports
 

Thank you again for these files. Do you happen to have copied the pages about Minensuchflugzeuge, in this file.

Junker

Re: Aircraft and personnel strength reports
 

Sorry, I do not have other contents from this file.

Re: Aircraft and personnel strength reports
 

Hello Seaplanes,

Thanks for sharing this interesting info and even more the important lesson that we must not ignore the lesser obvious files. These can obtain Luftwaffe documents as well.

Best regards, Marcel
