Kommandant Luftkreigsakadamie

Can anyone tell me who was the Kommandant late 1940 to 1941? From what I can see, he was not a RK-holder

Re: Kommandant Luftkreigsakadamie

Not in our data base and not in BOOG, Horst. Die deutsche Luftwaffenführung 1935-1945: Führungsprobleme, Spitzengliederung, Generalstabsausbildung. Stuttgart: Deutsche Verlags-Anstalt, 1982. ISBN 3-421-0195-3. 724p. 2,912 footnotes, nearly all from primary (archival) documentation. The Akademie is well covered in this work and includes the names of the Kdtn.

Possible inference: unfilled during that time period?

Re: Kommandant Luftkreigsakadamie

Took some digging but I couldn't leave this unresolved:

Die Kommandeure der Luftkriegsakademie
Gen.d.Flieger Otto von Stülpnagel (01.11.35 - 31.03.39)
Gen.d.Flieger Hellmuth Volkmann (01.03.39 - c. 31.08.39)
Gen.Maj. Heinz von Wühlisch (mdWdGb) (c. 01.10.39 - 21.07.40)
Gen.Lt. Robert Knauß (mdWdGb) (05.10.40 - 31.08.41)
Gen.Lt. Robert Knauß (01.09.41 - c. 18.01.44)
Gen.Lt. Herbert Rieckhoff (19.01.44 - 21.09.44)
Gen.d.Flieger Werner Kreipe (28.10.44 - 04.45)

Quite clearly, v. Wühlisch was temporary or acting, possibly pending his promotion to Generalleutnant, which did not come through.
