Re: Luftwaffe Officer Career database now available
Some units, such as the Jagdgeschwader zbV, surely were "provisional".
As for the transport units, I read somewhere (a long time ago) that this designation (KG zbV) had been given to raise the morale of the crews who had been promised to be part of the striking arm of the Luftwaffe (bombers) but were mainly used for pizzas delivery.
If this story is true, it would fully explain the "special duties" designation.
But is it?
