10 & 11./ZG 26 Ju 88s

10./ZG 26 with Ju 88s existed from Sep 42 until Aug 43 while 11./ZG 26 existed from Jun 43 to Sep 44. Thanks to Matti I know more about losses but can anyone tell me who commanded each Staffel and when? I have possibly Hptm Peter Habicht and Oblt/Hptm Willhem Pflanz respectively?

I believe 11./ZG 26 existed until end of war. CO from 22.11.44 onwards till 8.5.45 was Hptm. Richard Riedl.

Thanks both. My interest is the Ju 88 ops as I believe that 10 Staffel was reformed Summer 44 with Bf 110s and 11 Staffel converted to Me 410 post Sep 44 (which explains the 3U+ marked Me 410 captured at the end of the war at Gardemoen (I believe)

Basing on a logbook that I have I can confirm Hptm. Riedl.
I have further two signatures: Lt. ??? Staffelfuehrer and Olt.??? Staffelkapitaen.

Regards

Robert

Missed that but they still appear to have done little following their return to the north
