Parabellum,

Further to Martin's post, see if you can get hold of a copy of Ken Wakefield's "The First Pathfinders". This book deals with KGr 100 from it's infancy at Köthen.

In the book, Luftnachrichten Schul- und Versuchs-Regiment is described as a wireless operators training school and experimental establishment - included in the unit were several flying Kompanien charged with conducting airborne trials.

Both 7 and 8 Kompanie were initially involved with the development of long-range W/T communications and radio direction finding.

Wakefield asserts that 7 and 8 Kompanien were used to form the basis of LnAbt 100.
