Schl.G or SchG - what is correct for Schlachtgeschwader?

[Larry deZeng]

Lots of them.

The abbreviation "Sch." from the same source, page 73:


Sch. - Schütze, Schützen, Schiess, Schuss,
Schallmess, Schein, Schule, Schalter, Schalt,
Schutzpolizei, Scheune, Schaden, Schar,
Schupo, Shrapnel, Schaumberg-Lippe.

By the way, the British did not dream these up during the war. These abbreviations come directly from captured Luftwaffe documents, signal intercepts and the captured manual of authorized Luftwaffe abbreviations published by the Luftwaffe.
