There was a link posted on TOCH not too long ago (1 year or 2?) to Olve Dybvig's site with images of the loss list. There was quite a bit, but am not certain if it was anywhere near complete. I looked for the link, but couldn't find it. Perhaps someone could put it up again.

Thanks. So, if I understand correctly, surviving lists are from Generalstab Generalquartiermeister 6. Abteilung (Ib, II, III). The question is, what had happened to other copies. I am curious because it seems Russian copies of German documents partially double those handed over to BAMA by the US and the UK, and obviously must have come from another collection.

1. Reichsmarschall - Göring's copy
2. Staatssekretär der Luftfahrt und Generalinspekteur der Luftwaffe
3. Chef des Generalstabes
4. Luftwaffe Führungsstab Ia
5. Luftwaffe Führungsstab Ic (Presse)
6. Generalquartiermeister
7. Generalluftzeugmeister
8. Luftwaffe Personalamt Chefabteilung
9. Luftwaffe Personalamt Chefabteilung
10. Luftwaffe Personalamt Chefabteilung
11. Luftwaffe Personalamt I/IV
12. Luftwaffe Personalamt I/IV
13. L. D. - I am unsure about what this unit was
14. Chef für Flugsicherheit
15. L. E. 2 - I am also unsure at the moment what unit this is
16. Generalstab Generalquartiermeister 2. Abteilung
17. Generalstab Generalquartiermeister 6. Abteilung (Ib, II, III)
18. Generalstab Generalquartiermeister 6. Abteilung (Ib, II, III)
19. Generalstab Generalquartiermeister 6. Abteilung (Ib, II, III)
20. Generalstab Generalquartiermeister 6. Abteilung (IC)
21. Generalstab Generalquartiermeister 6. Abteilung (IC)

Hi,

The Karlsruhe Collection was a library of German documents assembled for the USAF German Air Force Monograph project housed in Karlsruhe, Germany. They were used as a source for people like Hermann Plocher and others to write the US Air Force historical series, some of which were translated and published, but not all of them. Later it became a center where authors like Balke, Gundelach, Brekken and Kurowski did their research in the 60's, and 70's. Then the original documents were transferred to the BA/MA where they were re-cataloged. Some of these documents were copied and stored at NARA. What I have been finding out is that a complete set was copied and is at AFHRA. Which is why I asked here if anyone knew about whether the Genst.Gen.Qu.6.Abt. loss list ever a part of the Karlsruhe Collection ? So if Larry is right, the answer is no, it never was.

Thanks again,

P.S.
By the way, thanks for the Eckert book reference Larry!
