Hello,

Thanks all for your comments. There is another Galland problem I'm encountering. Some sources indicate that he was originally assigned to 5.(S)/LG2 on July 1, 1939. However, his FB entries, which begin on Aug. 9, 1939, show only flights in Hs123s of 4.(S)/LG2, almost always in L2+AM. So, if he was in 5 Staffel it couldn't have been more than a few weeks. What evidence is there that Galland was ever in 5 Staffel?

Regards,
