Hauptmann Fritz E. Krause, NJG 11?

[Erich]

Andreas, you are quite correct. Kommando Welter or 10./NJG 11 as we have come to know it was very independent of any prop driven unit, although in some German docs it is listed under II./NJG 11. Typo or just German shrift....

atckyre: each of the gruppen in NJG 11 had just three staffels. and in fact II. gruppe although listed as 4 staffel only in late spring thus did operate as a combined 5/6 staffel besides the 4th. Bf 109G's most in fact were painted in "plain" day fighter camo, but there were also all light blue-grey birds and some with undersides in black for night ground attack and also the addition of the old 2cm underwing weapons pods for these hectic missions.

more coming in our book .....
