Help needed
 
3 Attachment(s)
Morning all,

I am trying to find information on this gent. From the info on the back of an envelope and the letter within it, I think he is Walter Schubert, but not 100% on that. I also have a ring of his which says

1939 - 1940 Stabskompanie - Polen- Westfront - Jagdgruppe Gentzen

Any info anyone can be povide on him and/or his activities during WWII would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike

Hi

The military postal code used are for the Fliegerhorstbetriebskompanie Z.G.2, and in addition I./ZG 2 were under the command of Johannes Gentzen (also seems to have been called Hannes Gentzen only in some documents) from May 1939 through May 1940.

So I think it is safe to assume that this man was part of the ZG 2 during the early part of the war, most probably assigned to the I. Gruppe or maybe their ground support.

Regards,
Andreas B

Our officer career notes have nothing on this guy, so he apparently did not hold a staff or command position and/or did not rise to a rank of Hptm. or higher at some point.

Sorry
