Post No.9: Larry, I feel that your latest post sums it up nicely.

Post No.10: So, this would mean that after all there was the Stab Träger Flieger Gruppe II./186 in existence before the war. Would it be possible to get some more details, such as the Gruppenkommandeur's name, or the like? Most interesting.

In JFV der Deutschen Luftwaffe 1934-1945 - Teil 2, page 485, it was stated that from 15 September 1939 it was Hptm. Heinrich Seeliger, former StaKa of 6./186.
