In the event anyone is interested, which they are not:

4. Flughafenbetriebskompanie/Kampfgeschwader 3.
(4. Airfield Servicing Company/KG 3)

Each Kampfgruppe had 2 of these initially (to 1942), then the number was reduced to one per Gruppe.

The following is a catalog start page where I could not link to individual listings. It is worth the time to review the entries.

Thanks Larry. Question did the number of total number ofpersonal stayed the same or was it halved ?

Approximately a third of the Flughafenbetriebskompanien were removed from the Kampfgeschwader and renamed Flughafenbetriebskompanien (Qu) on or about 10 January 1943. There was no change in the number of personnel. Unlike the FBK, which was attached to a Kampfgruppe and traveled wherever it did, the new FBK (Qu) was independent, assigned directly under the Chef Ingenieur of a Luftflotte, and could be used anywhere the Luftflotte wanted. Other than sunbordination and mobility, they were identical.
