Re: ANR - Holzkirchen
Yo Franck,
Yes! The whole I. Gruppo Caccia after two monthes of inactivity without machines in Bergamo, was transferrred in late October 1944 first to Memmingen and then to Holzkirchen.
There, they were trained on Bf 109 G-6, G-12, G-14, G-14/AS and G-10's under the supervision of Kapitän Kanzell (no unit given). They were ordrerd back to Italy, with brand new Bf 109 G-10's in the first week of January, the journey being quite adventurous... The III. Gruppo Caccia was sent also to Holzkirchen, their trianing starting at once, but was never completed. There are a few photos depicting a Bf 109 G-14 "Weisse 7" published, as the whole story in:
D'Amico and Valentino (1985): The Messerschmitt 109 in Italian service 1943 - 1945, Monogram.
Cheers
Marc
