Re: Ltn Käppler, JG 5
Thanks Andreas,
Well the naming of the various fighter units in Norway will fill a big book by itself. But you are the specialist. I saw on the link your provided that Keppler loss was reported by IV./JG 5. Can you tell us if he was Stafü of 12./ or 15./JG 5 at the time ?
By "normal" German organization in 1945 (if something like that existed), 12./JG 5 should depend of III./JG 5, but anything is possible so I am still confused.
As for German war cemeteries in Norway, I read somewhere that Trondheim was used as a gathering cemetery for other burial grounds, so it is possible that someone killed in Lister was reburied here. But once again, you are the specialist, so I will be very pleased to see what you will find.
Just curious, do you have listing of the men buried in Trondheim with the details of their burial/reburial (saying for example if they were first buried from other places, or if they were washed out by sea and so on) and/or unit ?
