Re: Major Erwein Graf Nostitz-Rieneck
I have searched our Luftwaffe officer career database of 31,000 fellows and there is no reference to such a person.
A search of the Kracker database also came up dry.
It could well be that this fellow was actually an army guy attached to, or even transferred to, the Luftwaffe for a while, then perhaps returned to the army (or died). This was not uncommon.
Beyond that, I am not sure what to suggest. If he was a Major in 1941, perhaps he made General Major before war's end. In that case, he might have a write up in the Karl-Friedrich Hildebrand volumes pertaining to army generals (published by Biblio Verlag). You might find something in the Axis Biographical Research site.
That's about all we have on this subject.
Good luck!
