Kriegsberichter

[Chris Goss]

Are there any published sources on the make up and locations etc of the Kriegsberichter organisation? For example, is there a K report on the organisation?

not sure if this is of interest but ECPA-D 'documentaliste' Nicolas Férard is author of a very nice book published by 'Histoire et Collections'.

Thanks for this. Del has offered to introduce me to Nicolas

no one more knowledgeable and worth doing in person if the chance arises..

I have been asked to write about the PK/Kr Ber organization and although there are many photos, there is little from the Luftwaffe side even though it was established pre-war. Probably major on 1940 though!

If you need a very nice photo of a PK-Berichter doing his job during the BoB, I have a nice example.

On a basic search of the Bundesarchiv for »Kriegsberichter«, there’s 500+ hits but whether any of those describes the structure and disposition of the whole service obviously would call for more digging.

Thanks also Ed and Nick. I had already check the BA-too much to sift through for a simple want!
