KuFlGr Stavanger
Does anyone know anything about this unit? From what I understand it was under the command of a Maj. Stockmann though am not sure whether it just was a stab set up to oversee operations out of Stavanger by those numbered KuFlGr units based there or was it a new entity as such? Similarly, when was it established and to whom was it subordinated?
Any further info on the unit would be greatly appreciated TIA Adam

Re: KuFlGr Stavanger
When the Küstenfliegerstaffeln 3./406, 2./906 and 3./606 were ordered to transfer to Stavanger at the end of May 1940, these units came under the command of Major Schwarz who formed a Stab with the designation Gruppe Schwarz, effective from 31.05.1940.
On 14.06.1940 Major Schwarz returned to Germany and was replaced by Major Stockmann. The Stab was at the same time renamed Kü.Fl.Gruppe Stavanger. This arrangement lasted until 18.07.1940 when the formation of Stab Küstenfliegergruppe 706 was ordered.
