Early careers of officers involved with Fritz X/HS293

[Chris Goss]

I have checked Larry and Doug's lists but can anyone help with anything on these:
Hptm Franz Hollweck: Pilot with 2./606 after having transferred from Navy to Luftwaffe but little known between April 1940 and November 1941
Hptm Gerhard Doehler: Becomes Gr Kdr III./KG 100 in September 1943 but replaced 3 months later and ends war with II./JG 300 but what did he do prior to May 43?
Hptm Herbert Pfeffer: Killed as Gr Kdr III./KG 100 29-30 Apr 44 but career prior to Feb 43 not known.
Hptm Guenther Eichholz: Beobachter who was awarded EP 13 Apr 42 but could he be the same LtzS Eichholz a Beobachter with 2./606 in 1940?

Hi Chris

You might be able to get all the answers from Freiburg. Unfurtunately I am not going the Freiburg within the next half year. Maybe you can find somebody who are going there. It will not take long to copy ...

If you don't have anyone going there on your behalf, it might be worth commissioning Sebastian Remus to copy the files for you. The quality of his images is always superb. His charges have edged up slightly recently to EUR 0.23 per image.

Contactable by e-mail: remusresearch@t-online.de

Carsten: Many thanks. What about Pfeffer?
Steve: Many thanks also-perhaps I might! How is his English?

[Larry deZeng]

Chris:

As Steve will undoubtedly agree, Sebastian R. reads and writes English quite well, although he may use Google Translate at times.

Chris - to back up what Larry has said, his English is perfectly fine. Previously, he used to burn the data to disc and post it as he only had Internet access via his mobile phone but he now uses WeTransfer which removes the disc and postage costs. I've had about 50 PERS-6 files from him as well as several others and can unreservedly recommend him. His speed of response is also excellent.

You will have to pay him by bank transfer. PayPal isn't an option.

One final point, he also works well to instructions. In the case of a PERS-6 file he will always take a high quality copy of any photographs.
