Re: Total number of claims for each Jagdgeschwader

Hi Guys

Firstly my old friend Stig.

I didn't know the purpose of JG 25(by memory one of the claimants was Herbert Ihlefeld, but I do know the JG 50 flew special high altitude Bf109's to get at Mosquitos.

Others, just clumped together obscure units to save time.

Secondly Alfred

Have not a clue what FLUG 1 was. Take you word for it, but claims were:-

3(sud)./FLUG 1 2nd November 1944 P-51 by ogefr Böhm north of Mansfeld 1245 hrs 2000 metres altiude
4(sud)./FLUG 1 23rd March 1944 B-17 by Fw Goebel 1130 hrs 5200 metres.

Luftbeostaffel Most but not all claims at night. Twelve claimants, two for Hptm Ernst Wallner, three for Lt Ludwig Wurtz, also another name Lt Achim Woeste looks familiar. all claims between 14th October 1943(Schweinfurt raid) and 4th October 1944. Strange numberings sometimes 3./Luftbeo, sometimes LBST 2 or LBST 7 once Luftbeo.Kaatsch.

With JGr.ZBK, again not a clue, but the claimant was Gerhard Michalski:-

3./JGr.ZBK 29th April 1944 B-17 East of Braunschweig 1103 hrs 7000 metres.

If third staffel, then I guess there must have been at least two others, so quite a size.

Thirdly Michael, your very welcome, would like to see somebody take on publishing something on these shadowy units
"Macht ist missen."

Kind Regards

Johannes

P.S

Industrial guess you know were factory sponsored small units. The four unconfirmed were for Hptm Ernst-Albrecht Leube of Industrial.Erla, got these from his Leistungsbuch, guess this suggests he was flying alone, at least two were O.Z, but three claimants with this unit.
