Re: 1 (F)/AG 123 and AR 234?
Thanks very much Larry!!!!
Yes, still alive, kicking and collecting, however too busy at work for much research these days.
Interesting the Soldbuch mentions on page 4 that he was transferred on 31.12.1944 to 3 Nachtaufklärungsstaffel and then it is crossed out. On page 17 the same date he was transferred to 1 (F) Aufklärungsgruppe 123.....so your reply explains that!
Also he has written in biro that he was discharged 3.5.1945 at Hohn-Rendsburg.....one further entry confirms he is unfit for active duty as of 26.6.1945 in Rendsburg.
From what I gather then the AR 234 B-1 was a recce aircraft and a single seater, however the B-2 was a night version with a radar operator cramped in the fuselage......if they had B-1s then my guy never flew!! There is no mention of him becoming a pilot.
All the best!
Ian
