Re: Need help with Leadership lists for KG30
Hello,
Am getting some useful feedback directly by email about this request. One issue that has been confusing things is that there were apparently two "Storps" who were early StaKap in KG30.
Quoting from the Luft Off Career Summary DB:
1) "STORP, Siegmund. 26.09.39 Oblt. and Staka 1./KG 30, POW - intercepted by Spitfires during an attack on ships at the Firth of Forth. 01.01.40 promo to Hptm."
2) "STORP, Walter (August-Franz Walter STORP). (DOB: 02.02.10 in Schnecken/Kreis Elchneiderung in Ost Preussen)....Mid-09.39 appt Führer of Erprobungsstaffel Ju 88. 01.01.40 appt Staka in KG 30. 01.03.40 appt Staka 8./KG 4..."
What I need to know is to which Staffel of KG30 "Walter" Storp was assigned. It would appear that whichever one it was, he was assigned from 1.1.30 to 1.3.40 when he was transferred out.
Not related to the KG30 problem, but of high interest about Walter Storp: "03.06.40 Hptm., Staka 8./KG 4, WIA - hit a balloon cable during a night sortie over Le Havre and belly landed at Amsterdam-Schiphol; sent to Wilhelmina Hospital in Amsterdam." Is anyone aware of any photos of this a/c after the FL?
Regards,
