Thanks for your efforts which match with what I have. However, there are omissions for example 3 Apr 40 when Lt Fritz Koch (4 Staffel) and Oblt Karl Overweg and Uffz Willi Erkens (5 Staffel) were lost, the latter being victims of a combat with a Sunderland. I have all the NVMs for May and June 40 plus all for Z/KG 30 if you are interested. My aim is to try and find out what exactly they were up to oct 39-Apr 40

Mahrenholtz of III./KG 30
Hi there
Allow me to correct a minor piece of info with regard to Mahrenholtz of III./KG 30 killed on 9/4 1940. His body was found near Thyboron in Denmark on 27/7 1940 and was laid to rest in Lindholm cemetery near Aalborg West on 30/7 1940. In the mid sixties he was moved to Grove cemetery near Fliegerhorst Grove. Soren Flensted WWW.Flensted.eu.com |

Ergänzungskampfgruppe 4 (ErgKGr 4) /KG30
Norbert/Chris
Perhaps you can have a look at my post on the recovered Ju88 from Lake Jonsvatnet. Belonged to KG30 supposedly. No listing. Belonged to ErgKGr4 previously. Is there a listing? regards Mark |

Re: KG 30 Losses Sep 39-Mar 40
Hello!
I have a Wehrpass plus other papers belonging to a Uffz. Hans Heinrich Selk. He was a pilot in the 3. Staffel KG 30. on October 8. 1939 the Wehrpass says that he is "Tödlich verunglückt", but I do not know the circumstances. I do not know, if this is any help at all Chris, but there You have it. All the best and thank You for some excellent books over the years. Christian

Re: KG 30 Losses Sep 39-Mar 40
Hi Chris: A bit off topic.With regard to a thread you posted a year or so ago,about Z/KG-30 personnel. Wondering if you could confirm if Oblt. Gerhard Frhr.Grote had flown with Z/KG-30, and if he, per chance, transferred to the Schlacht arm when Z/KG-30 was redesignated as a NF unit ? Cheers. Dean
