Re: Our EoE Project to list all Luft unit leaders in combat & combat support units down to the Sta Kap level for the 1939-40 war period

Ed,

This looks like it might be one of the reference documents used by Larry de Zeng and Doug Stankey for their monumental Luftwaffe Officers Career Summary DB, which they've posted on line. They are helping us with our project and are in the processes of further refining their DB, which I'm sure will be a big help to us. Still, many of the Luft officer personnel info is not complete for dates of Sta Kap service, and doing this is likely to be essentially assembling a giant jigsaw puzzle of sources to get this info. Once we've assembled all that we can from all the published and on-line sources available to us, including other researchers with some of the info, we may then have to resort to further research in the BA in order to assemble all of this data. Down to the Geschewader and Gruppe level should be pretty readily available. Its below that, at the Sta Kap level, that we know we are facing a huge challenge. That's why we're seeking cooperation from every member of the research community that might have useful inputs into solving this problem.

Regards,

Larry Hickey
