Re: Ofw Hermann Kempenich
Hi Chris,
The full title of Horn's book is Das Flurschaden - Geschwader: Die Chronik des Kampfgeschwaders 51 'Edelweis' zwischen dem 1.Januar 1944 bis Kriegsende, (2010), 304 pages of text. Horn's forte is to methodically use data from many sources, especially log books, to chronicle the events of each day. Pages 7 to 64 are devoted to II./KG 51's daily events from 6. February to 15. September 1944. While it is done in depth, the vast majority of the book is devoted to the Me 262 operations. It is limited to factual information with (as we have seen) relatively few errors. As to operations March to August, they are detailed factually but there is no analysis. Included are five photos of Me 410s of II./KG 51.
