KG unit of Hptm. Bruno Kamsties?

Dear all,

One of the former bomber pilots that strenthened the ranks of the Nachtjagd in 1944 was Hptm. Bruno Kamsties, who joined 6./NJG2 and went on to score five Abschüsse. Who can help me with details of the KG unit(s) with which Kamsties served before he joined the Nachtjagd?

Cheers and thanks for any details,

Theo
