Re: II./JG 101

FWIW, a few additional notes from other sources:

JG 112 was formed with Stab and 1.-4. Staffeln at Landau/Isar in August 1944. Although designated a JG, it was actually a BFS for training single-engine crews. The students were all bomber pilots undergoing conversion for reassignment to fighter units. The Stab was disbanded on 15.10.44 and its Ausbildungsgruppe (presumably 3 or 4 of its Staffeln) became II./JG 101. Last identified in documents at Landau/Isar on 04.10.44.

Mentioned in ULTRA, NARA T-79 roll 14 (list of all units stationed in the Luftgau VII area Aug-Oct 44), in several British Air Ministry air intelligence documents, and in the old Karl Ries book Flugzeugfliegerschulen.
