Question from Andrey Dikov on Erg.Gr./JG54 and other Luftwaffe units on July 1941

[Nikita Egorov]

Andrey asked me to post his question here:

Gentlemen, there's a photocopy of Walter Nowotny's logbook in Held's 'Der Jagdflieger Walter Nowotny' on the pages of his early career in 1.(Erg.)/JG 54. Only one and single page of July 1941. Do you know by chance if other pages were ever published, or another logbooks of Erg.Gr./JG 54 members, where one can find flight records during Ösel/Beowulf campaign? Any additional guides to Fl.Fü.Ostsee, KG 506 and II./ZG 26 flight records also appreciated.

Best regards,

Andrey Dikov

Hi!

Hi to Andrey, too.
Cannot help with Erg.Gr./JG 54 or ZG 26. But I do have KGr 506 KTB. At least used to have. It is like ten years or so last looked into it. Also it is microfilm roll, and nowadays it is hard to find a place where to read it.
The KTB might be available digitized at BA? I have not ever dived into there. Yet.

Cheers,
Kari

Dear Karri,

Sorry, it was a mistake from Andrey's side. He needs documents on 806, not 506. He said that you had already shared this KTB of 506 with him back in 2007.
Whole KTB of 506 is available at NARA T-1022 R-3331 PG/80124. For 806 nothing is at disposal at either NARA or BAMA currently.

BR,
Nikita
