Hptm Paul Metges - Question
I have a nice article written by Paul Metges on German ASR during the Battle of Britain [Luftwaffe Air -Sea Rescue in the Battle of Britain. Paul Metges, Aeroplane Monthly , September 1990, P. 522-527]. It provides one of the best summaries on Luftwaffe ASR operations.
One of the photographs in this article recently appeared on German E-Bay In this article, it is mentioned that Hptm Metges served with JG-110 after ASR service. However, in the Officer Biography [excerpted below] METGES, Paul. (DOB: 21.08.19 in Krefeld). 05.41 in 1. Seenotstaffel. 01.42 in 6. Seenotstaffel. 01.05.42 Lt., 6. Seenotstaffel WIA - Do 24 T-2 (CH+EZ) destroyed by a rough landing vic Vittoria Pl.Qu. 13 Ost 4739. 01.12.42 promo to Oblt./A1. 11.43 Oblt. in 4. Seenotstaffel. 01.02.45 Hptm., appt Staka 2./JG 104 (to 14.02.45). Notice there is no mention of JG-110.Did Hptm Metges serve with JG-110 or is the article in error and it should be JG-104? |
