Question about Lfl.6 stregth reports 1945
Hello,
what means the data in form of "xx-xx-xx-xx" in the "Besatzungen" (Crews) column in Lfl.6 stregth reports 1945? For example II./SG1 18:00 4.Feb.1945: 35-34-29-1 Best regards, Andrey |

Re: Question about Lfl.6 stregth reports 1945
I believe the following;
35 = Ist-Bestand (number of pilots) 34 = Einsatzbereit (operational fit) 29 = Verfügbar (available, some pilots were away from the unit) 1 = not sure about the last column.....Bedingt Verfügbar (?) Regards, John |

Thank you, John!
So, only 4th column still unclear. Kind regards, Andrey |

This is only about crew, not about aircraft

Re: Question about Lfl.6 stregth reports 1945
I think that the first column means Sollstärke (authorized strength) and the second column Iststärke (actual strength), so the third column could mean Einsatzbereit

Flugzeugführer:

Norbert/Andrei,
Soll-Stärke is of course normally listed but not in the specific Lfl. 6 reports Andrey is referring to. John |

Re: Question about Lfl.6 stregth reports 1945
Just a quick query.
I thought that 3rd: Einsatzbereit (combat ready) + 4th: Bedingt Einsatzbereit (conditional combat ready) equals 2nd: Ist (actual strength). However, from the LW strength report of 13 April 1945 (widely circulated), that is apparently not necessarily the case. So, who are these pilots covered under the 4th: Bedingt Einsatzbereit? Replacement pilots? Sinisa |

Re: Question about Lfl.6 stregth reports 1945
We are drifting of topic here imho....the Strength Reports of Lfl.6 KTB that Andrey is referring to in his initial post/question do NOT list SOLL-Stärken, neither for a/c or for personnel.
