Re: Luftwaffe Officer Career database now available

Doug and Larry - many thanks for such a selfless act. Hopefully, people will try to contribute towards its improvement as a resource and it won't just be something people take from. I shall check through the files I have for the small number of officers I am interested in and offer amendments backed up with documented evidence.

Re: Luftwaffe Officer Career database now available

Hello Larry and Doug,

As already ventured to you directly, this huge and most generously presented database will not only help all of us tremendously, but hopefully will inspire us all to send in additions, corrections, still failing names etc.

As several people have copies of Luftwaffe Personalamt files of officers, I do hope that the essential info of these are sent to Larry and Doug too. If we all benefit from this list, we all should support this magnificent job as well I think.

Keep this train moving! All the best, Marcel

My voice can only echo what all other members said.
In this world of "profit first", your move is absolutely remarkable. Thanks for it.
Since I donwloaded the files, I have searched them about a dozen times!
Just a question: where can I find a glossary?

Chris

Re: Luftwaffe Officer Career database now available

Thanks for the kind words, Chris, and that goes for everyone else, too. We labeled the "Glossary" as "Terminology" and here it is:

Re: Luftwaffe Officer Career database now available

The database is proving useful practically every time I'm working on anything, so a big thank you to Doug and Larry.

In return, I'm attaching a small but colourful contribution to one biography:
