Staka 3./JG51 22-April-1941 Question.
 

Can anyone identify the signatory of the Staka 3./Jagdgeschwader 51 on the attached image? The insert is attached to the final page of a Soldbuch.

Any help will be very well received, many thanks in anticipation.

Regards Richard.

Heinrich Krafft?

Many thanks for the suggestion on Krafft. The signature certainly looks as though it ends with a 't'.

Do you by chance know the dates Kraft served as a Staka with 3./JG51?

Thanks again for your help.

Regards Richard.

Hi there,

AND Something interesting found today on eBay:

Look at the date on the back of the picture... At that date he was supposed to be GKdr. following the first link. A picture made to mark the said transfer??

Cheers, Franck.

Hello Franck

Thank you for the link, which states he was appointed Staka 3./JG51 on 01-November-1940 through to 01-June-1942, which fits the dates on the insert for it to be Heinrich Krafft.

Thanks again.

Regards Richard.
