Luftwaffe Pilots from other Armed Forces branches

[tonda75]

Hi Michael,
It probably happened very often that the pilot was first a member of the WH, or another type of army.
I started searching among JG 26 pilots whose surname begins with the letter S and K.

Uffz.W. Spiegl 5./JG 26 I.R. 483
Uffz.H. Streufert 10./JG 26 Kraftf.-Ers.Abt. 32
Uffz.A. Jenner 11./JG 26 San.Ers.Komp.
Uffz.E. Kohler 3./JG 26 I.R.
Ofw.K. Kruska 6./JG 26 A.R.121
Hptm.G. Kelch 7./JG 26 A.R. 59 and 39.

If you are interested I can continue.
I did not include Flak members in this list.
Interestingly, before the war, many pilots were members of the police.
Regards Tony
