Hello Rudi,
The situation was complicated since Italian forces were there. Here is a site in Italian that may offer some help.

From wikipedia:
The airport was built in 1938 during the
Italian occupation of the Dodecanese as a base for the
Regia Aeronautica and was called
Aeroporto di Martisa "G.Pessi Parvis" and its Italian airport code was 801. It housed a squadron of
Savoia-Marchetti SM.81 and a squadron of
Fiat CR.32 biplane fighters. In 1940, during
World War II, it was bombed by the British
Royal Air Force but stayed under Italian control until the
Dodecanese Campaign, when it fell under
German control.
Best,
Ed
