Major Albrecht
 

I am researching a Luftwaffe Major Albrecht believed to be stationed at Furstenwalde, Spree, in and after August 1939.
His unit is not known. Can anyone help with any information?

Re: Major Albrecht
 

We have 34 Luftwaffe officers with that last name in out data base and it's impossible to tell which one it is.

Hi
thank you for the information. I was hoping that as he such a rank prior to the outbreak of war it may be possible to trace him.

If I had to guess, I'd say he was the airfield Kommandant or he was a staff officer with Koflug 10/III. So it might be Paul Albrecht.
