Re: Uffz. Arno Frankenberger
Hi Stig!
Yes, I saw a diagram showing the organization of 2 Fliegerdivision in June 1944 and it seems correctly that it was a VIP transport unit.
However, on the link I mentioned before, it is classed as an Aufklärer Unit in 1943! Is it possible that it indeed started as a recon unit and then became a transport one?
The other question is: why, such an experienced airman like Frankenberger would be posted for the rest of the war on a VIP transport unit instead of returning to his (F)/123, where his knowledge would be best used? Was he severely wounded on the crash of his Do 17 P in 1939?
DOES someone possess the "chain of command" branch and links of the Aufklärer units? It seems the Germans had a lot of Kommandos directly linked to the OKL...It would be nice to see if sometime in 1943 this particular unit we are discussing was indeed a recon unit...
Yours
Adriano Baumgartner
