St/Kpt. 3/ZG26 after 18.8.40
Good evening: Could anyone confirm who assumed the role of St/Kpt., or for that matter St/Fhr., of 3/ZG26 after the loss of Oblt. Hans Kirchhoff on 18.8.40? I've seen in a previous post that Oblt. Johannes Kiel took over, but there is evidence to suggest that Hptm. Kurt Holler, later a prominent night fighter, flew at least 6 missions with 3/ZG26 in Sept./ Oct.1940. Accepting that rank often gave way to combat experience, is it possible that Hptm Holler was St/Kpt. during that period? Any comments welcomed. Cheers. Dean
