Hi Chris
TodayI saw your question about Gerhard Korthals.
In the diary of Werner Poppenburg 7./KG51 is Oberleutnant Rudolf Bretschneider named as Staffelkapitän of the 8./KG51 on 18.6.1941 . From March 1942, Hauptmann Rudolf Bretschneider was Käpitän of the Führerkurierstaffel. I think Gerhard Korthals followed in March 1942 as Staka 8./KG51. Korthals flew his 200. Feindflug for the 8./KG51.

Regards, Rene
