Re: Kampfgeschwader 2 Signatures.
Hi Richard -
It looks like we had KETTNER but lacked the details of his earlier career with KG 2. Likewise, KETTERER is an obvious misspelling that we picked up from some document and inserted in the listing to avoid losing it. Sort of, “out of sight, out of mind.” Now that we have this cleared up and can see that it's the same person, we will make the necessary change on 1 April 2016.
KETTERER, 03.42 Hptm., appt Kdr. I./KG 2 (to 15.06.42).
KETTNER, Kurt. (DKG). 01.03.43 in IV./KG 53, promo to Maj. 22.07.43 Maj. in Frontflieger-Sammelgruppe, trf to JG 300. 07.43 Kdr. of II./JG 300. 09.43 Kommodore of JG 300 (to 04.44). 27.10.43 Maj., awarded DKG, III./JG 300. 01.05.44 promo to Obstlt. 20.07.44 appt Kdr. II./JG 5 (to 25(28?).08.44 KIA). Credited with 2 victories.
