Valence airfield
In the Air 20/40 decripts there is reference to the following:-
"10 Jun 1944 - (Valence to ARC 3/XIII) that protection of the A/F cannot be guaranteed if 2 pns Flak removed, in view present patriot situation." (Ultra T.212/7)
I have two questions:-
(a) Valence - is anyone able to identify which Fliegerhorst-Kommandantur or Flugplatzkommando was responsible for Valence airfield in June 1944. I have checked Holm and cannot find reference to Valence other than for KG 26 and LLG 1 and leichte Flak-Abteilung 741 (v).
leichte Flak-Abteilung 741 (v) is recorded as being at Valence at this time and is noted as being controlled by Flak-Brigade 5 from Aug 1944.
(b) pns - anyone have a clue what this means..........

Reason: Missed reference to T.212/7
