Luftwaffe fighter training units in the airdrome of Märkisch-Friedland June 1944
Please,
What was/were the Luftwaffe fighter training unit(s) settled in the airdrome of Märkisch-Friedland (Third Reich at the time, today Mirosławiec in North-West Poland) in June 1944? It seems: Stab/JGr West + 3./ and 4./JGr West ? Can we confirm? Other(s) unit(s)? Thank you. Phil. |
