Paul Galland

Gentlemen,

Going through a bunch of Luft documents that I have.

I have a promotion document for Paul Galland, one of Adolf Gallands brother who was later killed.

My question is can anyone identify the Staffelkäpitan who signed it?

Cheers
Bill

Re: Paul Galland

Good evening,
One thing puzzles me here. The document says Paul Galland was Catholic ('Konfession: kath.'), while apparently the Galland family were of Huguenot ancestry. Were they actually Catholic, or did Paul convert to Catholicism, or is it just a mistake?

Thank you in advance.

Re: Paul Galland

The Galland brothers' mother was said (by Adolf) to be a devout Catholic.
