Hptm Konrad Aschenbrunner 3/KG27
Hi guys, im currently working on updating my files on several Kampfgeschwader units notably KG27.
Can anybody provide any details of Hptm Konrad Aschenbrenner's service career whilst serving with this unit. Particularly interested in a/c flown, decorations, and ultimate fate? Any help would be most useful, or help with KG27 losses. Rgs. Steve. |

Re: Hptm Konrad Aschenbrunner 3/KG27
Hi Guys
May I just point out the following Checked two sources of mine, www.ww2.dk and Carlsen/Meyer's book Die Flugzeugführer-Ausbildung der Deutschen Luftwaffe Band 1. According to www.ww2.dk the persons name was Kurt Aschenbrenner! I take it this is wrong and his correct name was Konrad? It also says he became Kommandeur on 14.6.40 until 11.7.41 As per Carlsen/Meyer his name was Konrad Aschenbrenner BUT the correct name of the unit he commanded was Navigationsschule Strausberg Cheers Stig |

Re: Hptm Konrad Aschenbrunner 3/KG27
Your right about his last name beeing Aschenbrenner! My informations comes from his personel-files fra Aachen, so the date I mentioned taking command of KGr. 100 are the right one!. Navigationsschule Strausberg later became Navigationsschule der Luftwaffe, ending the war in Denmark.

Re: Hptm Konrad Aschenbrunner 3/KG27
Thanks Junker
Can you expand a bit about the name change (when + source) and move to Denmark? Carlsen/Meyer makes no mention of either. They say the school was moved to Hadersleben (which sounds German to me) 9.2.45 and was disbanded 28.4.45 Cheers Stig |
