In mid-April 1945 the Luftwaffe reorganized a number of commands into this unit to counter the Soviet attack on Berlin. Does anyone have a list of which units made up this command?

Well, I figured that much.

Specifically, what I am looking for is what operational-level (i.e., geschwader, etc.) units would have comprised this command. Thanks!

Hi,
Michael Holm's excellent site is always worth consulting on matters of ORBAT, but you might find the attached more detailled

Thanks, SES.

That pretty much confirms the other information I've gathered so far, from places like Holm's site and others.

Hi LukeFF,
YAW. Have you come across any details concerning Jafü NordOst, because here MH fails us. The commander, the location of the GefStd and perhaps the origin.

Hi SES,

No, unfortunately I haven't. If I do come across anything, though, I'll post it here.
