Re: Maj Alfred Hemm

Hello all,

I can confirm that Major Helm obtained 3 victories with the II./NJG 2, some surviving original Abschusstafel of the II./NJG 2 (later renamed in IV./NJG 1) shows these victories as the 143th, 159th and 178th Abschuss of the II./NJG 2 alias IV./NJG 1.

According to Ab A. Jansen's three volume history of Leeuwarden airfield ('Wespennest Leeuwarden' / Hornest nest Leeuwarden) Helm was leading a detachment of Funkmess Erprobungsstelle Werneuchen in Leeuwarden.

As I said, Helm therefore is not to be confused with Major Alfred Hemm who served with the I./NJG 1 later in the war.

Best regards, Marcel
