TGr. 30
 

Bonjour,

What was the last airfield of TGr.30 and who was his last Kommandeur?

Thanks in advance.

Their last base seems to have been Kaufbeuren although on 6 May 1945 Luftflotte 6 intended to move them to Salzburg.

Hptm. Erich Langer took over temporary command after Oberstleutnant Klamke was killed in mid-April. I don't know if a permanent appointment was made after that.

A Booklet on TG 30 states this 'The group moved once more to Eggebeck near Schleswig on 4 May and there we experienced the capitulation '.
Original - 'Die Gruppe Verlegte noch Einmal am 4.Mai nach Eggebeck bei Schleswig und dort erlebten wir die Kapitulation '
Some elements may have been at Salzburg as Nick's post,

Interesting.
Which booklet are you talking of?

Re: TGr. 30
 

Another member of the forum was kind enough to send me some photo copies of the booklet when I was looking into supply flights to the Channel Islands and Festungs . If you PM me an e-mail address I will send the sheet with the publication details, I believe it was written by Ernst Hartmann and was published in 1997,

At least 3 TG 30 were at Eggebeck may 1945. See attached extract from AIR 24 1518.
