Hi Chis,

FWIW, I did find a secondary-source confirmation for Armin Goebel as StaKa of 1.(F)/123 at Toussus-le-Noble/Buc in Feb 1942.

According to Harald Rabader's "The Knullenkopfstaffel", Oblt. Goebel was Staffelkapitän of 1.(F)/123 from 26 Nov 1940 to 16 May 1943. He was promoted to Hauptmann on 1 Feb 1942.

(However, I suspect that you're already well aware of this resource... )

No luck on 3.(F)/122 or 3.(F)/123, unfortunately.

Regards,
Leon Venter
