KG-54 'Totenkopf' (Siegfried Radtke)
Hello,
I was wondering if someone can help me with a quick query with regards to the KG-54 Totenkopf book by Siegfried Radtke please? Before I shell out for the book can anyone tell me if there is an appendix in the book that lists the various Staffelkapitäne throughout the war (or at least covering 1942-45) or does it just cover Gruppenkommandeur and higher? I have a Soldbuch, Flugzeugführerschein and citations to a DKiG & Ehrenpokal winner of KG-54/KG(J)-54 and wish to trace his unit's actions and also to identify various Staka signatures in the Soldbuch (although I have identified some by trawling through Larry & Doug's Officer Career Lists). While I have a lot of various LW related books (including Larry & Doug's Bomber volumes) as this is the first item I have acquired to KG-54 I don't have a unit specific tome for them.

Dear hucks216,
Yes, the book lists the various Staffelkapitäne throughout the war in Anlage 2. Incidentally, my copy of the book is entitled Kampfgeschwader 54, Von der Ju 52 zur Me 262: Eine Chronik nach Kriegstagebüchern, Berichten und Dokumenten 1939-1945. It took me years to find a copy. Good luck. Regards, Richard |
