Josef or Johann Krause of 6./NJG 101

[barkas]

Dear friends,

I'm looking for information on the commander or just a rank-and-file member of the 6th Staffel Nachtjagdgeschwader 101.
Luftwaffe Officer Career Summaries by Henry L. deZeng and Douglas G. Stankey lists three night fighters named Johann (Hans) or Josef Krause, but I'm almost certain it is only two, maybe even just one person.


Can you advise me what is right and what is wrong? Thanks, Jan
