JG 103 at Chateaureux/France

[Hans W. Koerfges]

Does anyone has information about JG 103 based in 1943 at Chateaureux/France. In second half of that year they made mostly a short "Jagdfliegerausbildung" which lasted not more than 6 weeks. After that the new unqaulified hunters came straight to their units mostly based in the eastern theatre and had tremendous losses in very short time. The caluculation for the new pilots were not more than some weeks in surviving.

Thanks for any infomration
