14.(Z)/LG1 question to John Vasco
Hello,
Who were the staffelführers in the 14.(Z)/LG1 at the time of the Battle of Britain? Many thanks Fran |
Re: 14.(Z)/LG1 question to John Vasco
According to 'Zerstörergruppe, A History of V.(Z)/LG 1 - I./NJG 3 1939-1941' by Ludwig von Eimannsberger (ISBN: 0-7643-0479-8) [this book is a 'must-have' if you are interested in Bf 110 operations during the Battle of Britain], the Staka were Hptm. Alexander Mauke (sick, 8/8/40); Hptm. Hans von Boltenstern (transferred to Erpr. Gr. 210 on 26/8/40); Oblt. Michael Junge (KIA 4/9/40). After the loss of Michael Junge, the Gruppenadjutant, Oblt. Ernst Zobel led 14. Staffel up to its final demise on 27th September 1940.
Hope this helps. John Vasco |

Another book(s) that may be of interest - 'Die Geschichte des Lehrgeschwaders 1 (History of LG 1) - Part 1' (and 2). these are available thru http://www.christian-schmidt.com/Volume 1 covers the LG 1's heavy fighter group, Stuka group and early bomber ops. Lists losses and claims - the 110 guys claimed almost 100 vics if I recall correctly.
