Gr. Kdr. II/ZG2
Good Morning: Following the death of Hptm. Harry Carl, Gr.Kdr. II/ZG2 on 16.8.40, and the appointment of Hptm. Wilhelm Otto Lessmann to that position near the end of August (28th?) there appears to be a gap of about 2 weeks where there is no information on who was in command. I found on page 90 of the Nauroth/Held book "Bf110 on all Fronts" the following statement on Gr.Kdr. for II/ZG2 in the Battle of Britian, quoted, it says " Hptm. Carl, then Lehmann" Could this possibly be Hptm. Horst Lehrmann, former St.Kpt. of 2/ZG1, prior to its redesignation to NJG1 in June,1940? My understanding is that Lehrmann did not transition to nightfighters. Is there another individual by the name of Lehrmann, or "Lehmann" that could have been in an acting Gr.Kdr. role at this time? Any comments welcome. Thanks. Dean.
