Re: Defence of the Reich: Female Fighter Controllers?
Larry:

Thank you for such a clear and thoroughly researched response. Your comments reflect what I have always understood to be the absurd under-utilisation of its female population by the Reich (which contrasts dramatically with many Allied nations).

The employment of a female controller, as described by Caldwell, strikes me as incongruous, a view reinforced by your reply. It may be that why a female controller was directing III/JG 26 on 24 April 1944 is an issue that can't be clarified at this remove. Another (minor) WW2 puzzle.

Thanks

Don W
