Updated Officer Career Database

I must announce that the revised and updated version of our Luftwaffe Officer Careers Database is now available via the Mike Holms website (www.ww2.dk). It has more than a thousand additional fellows and over 4,000 fellows have had edits to their entries. The most conspicuous change is the addition of a "Change Log" which indicates each and every change to the entries since the release of the first version of April 2012. This was at the suggestion of Rob Romero to avoid having the readership needing to drudge through everything again to find what's new. Thanks, Rob, for this most useful suggestion!

Enjoy!

Re: Updated Officer Career Database

Hello Larry and Doug,

Much sooner as expected because of the vast amount of work you guys must have with these database, I want to express my gratitude for your magnificent effort.

Will check my (reconstructed) personel list of some units which were in Venlo and send you additions/corrections soon.

All the best, Marcel / Venlo

Updated Officer Career Database

Doug & Larry

Thank you very much indeed for your effort in updating these comprehensive lists and for offering them out to the enthusiast/researcher community.

These are proving a vital source of information and you are both owed a drink or 2 from those of us who benefit from your generous contribution.

Regards Richard.

Re: Updated Officer Career Database

Great work.
But I can't understand why it's still implied, that the danish Hauptmann Poul Sommer was executed after the war. He was sentenced to 12 years in prison but was pardoned early, and died in 1991.
Further that ist's stated that Major Sölter transferred out of I/KG 26 in spring 1945 when he was still with the unit at FlH Vejle/DK may 1945? See attcahed list from RAF may 45.
