KG200 ( Ghost-Squadron) WP / SB Grouping

[Oberbootsmann]

Hello. I'd like to show a rare document grouping of the legendary and top secret "Kampfgeschwader 200".

For the ones who'd like to learn more about KG200 and the Mistel program, here are some very useful links:


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kampfgeschwader_200

http://www.ww2.dk/air/kampf/kg200.htm

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mistel


The lot consists of Wehrpass, Soldbuch and a bunch of other documents.

The soldier started as a volunteer at "Regiment General Göring" and later served with some other LW units before he was occupied at "9. / KG66" which was in charge of "Mistel S1 and S2" and renamed in Nov. 1944 in "7. / KG200". Finally he ended up at "14. / KG200".
It seems that the soldier was occupied by the allies after the war. I think this grouping will make a great research project.

As soon as I have photos of all pages of the documents I'll add them to this thread.

I really like to see more of it.

KG 200 is a very interesting unit.

I do have the feeling that the guy wasn't flight crew but ground crew, and that makes a big difference.

Interesting unit but as Eric-Jan pointed out he is not aircrew.

He served with FBK - Flughafenbetriebskompanie or Airfield Servicing Company. and with active squadrons. Post 4 indicates he was a Flugzeug Elektriker - Aircraft Electrician.

Page 15 bears the signature of Hauptmann u. Staffelführer Kurt Seyfarth RK.
Interesting he or the clerk couldn't spell Staffelführer!

Nice group, even if he was a ground crew. . Such docs are rare.
I have a Sb of a paratrooper who was during few months in 8./KG 200, during 44. Probably about a commando operation.

14/kg 200.

Very interesting documents especially for me who is collecting informations as to Luftwaffe in Denmark 1940-45.

14/IV/KG 200 equipped with training Mistel, transferred to Fliegerhorst Tirstrup/DK 19 february 1945 and stayed there untill the surrender in may 45. Staffelkapitän was Oberleutnant Droste. Tirstrup is today called Aarhus airport.

I have pictures of Mistel from Tirstrup, but sadly can'not attach them directly from my PC.

Hello. I've decided to sell the grouping. I've put it to the E-Stand with many additional photos.
