Re: Need help with 3./ZG26 pilot first names during 1940

A search of our officer personnel database yields:

FLECKNER, Hans-Wilhelm. 01.06.43 in Stab/Jagdfliegerführer Südfrankreich, promo to Hptm. 03.45 Hptm., appt Leiter Vorlehrgang/Erg.JG 1 (to 01.05.45).

FLECKNER, Willi. (DOB: 29.04.08 in Neuwitz). – a bomber guy.

Manhart - none found.
Alberecht - none associated with ZG 26 found.
Moller - none associated with ZG 26 found.
Danneberg - none found.
Iberg - none found.

But we have 3 Beckers associated with NJGs: Hans-Ludwig, Ludwig and Martin. Martin is “out” because his early period was with the recon units. Ludwig had been with LG 1 in 39/40 so that leaves only Hans-Ludwig.

BECKER, Hans–Ludwig. 26.02.43 Hptm., Staka 12./NJG 1.

BECKER, Ludwig. (DOB: 22.08.11 in Dortmund-Aplerbeck). (RE, DKG). 1939 entered the Luftwaffe as a Lt.d.R. 07.40 Lt., trf to NJG 1 from 14.(Z)/LG 1. 16.10.40 Lt., 4./NJG 1. 08.41 Oblt., in 4./NJG 1.

PROSKE, Rüdiger. 01.02.43 promo to Hptm.
PROSKE, R. 18.08.40 Oblt., Adj. I./ZG 26 PoW. – apparently this is Rüdiger.

Pogoda – none found.

I expect that most of the people that you mentioned are not in our records because they either had too low a rank or never held a position.
