Re: German docs in TSAMO
For anyone interested in JG 5's response to the Lancasters that sank the Tirpitz, take a look at Bestand 500 / Findbuch 12453 - Oberkommando der Kriegsmarine (OKM) / Akte 79: Verschiedene Materialien der Wehrmachtsbehörden in Norwegen.
This includes documents apparently assembled for the post-mortem on the loss of the Tirpitz on 12 November 1944. Among these are transcripts of traffic between the controller and the fighters, reports from observer posts, the ground controller's account of the attack and response and (see attached) a list of which pilots took off, when, and in which aircraft. |
