Re: N.J.Kdo. Bretagne

Theo,

Many thanks for picking this up.

Thank you for your comments.

All I have so far is that numerous Luftflotte 3 Einzelmeldung for July, Aug, Sep and Oct 1941 refer to this "unit".

Here is an extract from Einzelmeldung Nr. 2 vom 2.10.1941.

Zu.2a u. 2b) Erfolgsmeldung zum Nachteinsatz vom 1/2.10.1941
------

Ferner waren eingesetzt:
XII.Fl.-Kps.(N.J.K.):9 Flugzeuge (s.Einz.Meld.Nr.3 v.2.10.41)
N.J.Komm.Bretagne: 1 Me 110 von 21.35 - 23.26 ohne Feindberührung.

I have checked a few Lageberichten for the same period but not found any reference to this "unit".

It has been suggested that it might be a temporary unit (an der Kommandoweg aufgestellt) under the authority of a senior field or territorial command - limited to being active for not more than 180 days Or a Teilkommando from one of the Nachtjagd units operating at that time.

I will continue compiling the entries from the Einzelmeldung and load a page up on the LuftwaffeData Wiki and see if anything else comes to light.

Once again many thanks for your input.
