Re: Night Fighter Questions

Hello David,

Searching for entries about you in the TOCH your question about II.NJG 2 came up. What happened is this:
On 1 October 1942, the II.NJG 2 in Leeuwarden (in november 1941 created from the 4./NJG 1 und Helmut Lent), was renamed in IV.NJG 1. So, the NJG 1 was compleet: from north to south > IV.NJG 1 Leeuwarden, III.NJG 1 Twente, I.NJG 1 Venlo and II.NJG 1 St.Trond/Belgium.

A ´new´ II.NJG 2 was formed from the III.NJG 2 and according to my information, Hptm. Horst Patuschka was its first commander.

Best regards, Marcel Hogenhuis
