1, 2 and 3./(H) 21 (Pz) December 1941
Dear friends,
As I am no expert at all when it comes to all sorts of Aufklärer units, I would appreciate your help: An inventory of aircraft from Feldluftpark 5 in Holland shows 24 Fw189 from I. Gruppe/(H) 21 (Pz) on Venlo airfield on 1th December 1941. This puzzles me because this airfield was mainly used by nightfighters. The number of 24 Fw189's perfectly matches with RL 2-III/716a (24 Fw189's on 29th November 1941). Main question: has anybody info, perhaps from flight logs, when this unit arrived in Venlo and when it left ? Could re-equipment - Fw189 instead of Hs126 - be a reason ? Most veterans of the I./NJG 1 and groundorganisation never mentioned anything about double tailed Fw189's, their presence in Venlo may be short lived. Any information is highly appreciated ! Best regards, Marcel
