Melvin,


A Hptm. Karl NEUMAIER, A1 (Tr.O.), is listed on p.191 of the Dienstaltersliste der Offiziere der Deutschen Luftwaffe nach dem Stande vom 1. August 1944. There is no listing for anyone by the name of NEUMAR.

Hptm. Karl NEUMAIER is also listed on p.150 of Patzwall , Klaus D. Die Luftwaffen-Rangliste 1945. Norderstedt: Militair-Verlag Klaus D. Patzwall, 1986. Hb. 225p. Index. Again, there is no listing for anyone by the name of NEUMAR.

NEUMAIER is mentioned just twice in the KG 53 unit history (Kiehl, Heinz. Kampfgeschwader “Legion Condor” 53": Eine Chronik – Berichte, Erlebnisse, Dokumente, 1936-1945. Stuttgart: Motorbuch Verlag, 1983. ISBN: 3-87943-947-8. Hb. Dj. 388p. Illus. Maps. Appendices. Bibliography. Names index.), on pages 48 and 53. Both entries refer to him as an Oblt. belonging to 8. Staffel in September 1939 while based at Gross-Ostheim near Aschaffenburg. No further mention in the book and no mention of a NEUMAR.
