Unternehmen Blindschleiche

What was Unternehmen Blindschleiche ? It had something to do with German radar along the Danish westcoast - Funkmessstellung Ringelnatter - in the spring of 1945.

Just a thought, tracking of V-1 fired from the Cuxhafen area?

Hi Carsten,

I can offer the following explanation:

Himmelbett box Blindschleiche at Ternet, west of Brussels.

Cheers, Theo

Hi guys,

I've checked and the last mention that I have of Himmelbett station Blindschleiche in function is of late May 1944, nothing after that .. So it may indeed have been disbanded & its personnel distributed sometime later in 1944.

Cheers, Theo

Re: Unternehmen Blindschleiche

hello guys,

Hptm. Walter Muggenthaler was Kommandeur II./Ln.Rgt 222 in Kryle/Denmark, supervising/commanding the radar stations RINGELNATTER, LAMA and BUFFEL. In 1945 the radar station BLINDSCHLEICHE near Bruxelles had been liberated nearly 6 months before...

Best regards, Marcel
