Re: St Kap 2./NJG 2 1940-41
According to recollections from unit members written down in the 60'ies or early 70'ies Oblt. Schütze was Staffelkapitän of 5./NJG1 from mid July 1940 following Oblt. Streib. On July 19th he was apparently wounded during an intruder mission over England and hospitalized for some time. Lt. Albert Schulz is said to have stepped in as initial substitution Staffelkapitän because Oblt. R. Jung who was second in command was provisionally leading the 6./NJG1 respectively the renamed 3./NJG2. Some time between end of August and 1st October 1940 Jung became Staffelkapitän 2./NJG2. Source: RL 10/588, BAMA.
Kind regards
