Re: Ghostbombers updates

Today, believe it or not, it's 20 years since ghostbombers.com went live and the latest additions, taking the site to 829 pages, are:
  • Complete works: addition of two pieces I contributed to Axis Wings Volume 2 (Chandos Publications, 2024)
  • III./EJG 2: Gone but not disbanded, April 1945, a 4,000-word spin-off from research I did in support my piece 'Panthers Taking Pictures' which appears in in Axis Wings Volume 2.
  • 1./NAGr. 6: information about the Staffel's relocation to Hohn, referred to in Panthers Taking Pictures.
  • Sonderstaffel Einhorn: several additional bits of information following on from my Axis Wings articles.
  • Sonderstaffel Kaatsch: additions regarding the events of 24 and 25 August, 3 and 5 September and 1 Oct.ober 1944.
  • Nachtschlachtgruppe 8: additions about operations during February, March and April 1945.
  • Kommando Olga and Agent Cornelius: Ob. West's guidelines of 24 November 1944 for the unit's future operations.
  • Unternehmen Zeisig: 23 January 1945: an assessment by the Luftwaffe Operations Staff of LG 1's performance in this operation.
  • LLG 1 and Kommando Schäfer: added item from the diary of Armeegruppe G.
  • The Ar 234 in Norway and Denmark: damage inflicted when Kaltenkirchen was bombed on 7 April 1945; revised paragraph about the disbandment of 1.(F)/5.
  • Gefechtsverband Kommando der Erprobungsstellen: Werk Nummern of six Ar 234s proposed for service with the Gefechtsverband.
  • Geschwader Bongart: additions about German attacks on Lamastre on 5, 6 and 16 July and 20 August 1944 (thanks again to Philippe Canonne); losses from the Quartermaster General's statistics for June–September 1944.
  • Markings and camouflage: a Naval message about the markings of the Bloch 151 and 152 in German service.
Twenty years in, and I'm still finding typing and layout issues to correct.
