                    He was trained as a Kampfbeobachter but that position was not made until post Crete. Prior to Crete the term Absetzer was used.
                    He transferred to KGr.z.b.V. 102 prior to the action also so he not doubt was paratroop dispatcher.

                    The experience of the Transport formations in the western campaign showed that the dispatchers had a poor training. The training of the dispatchers was conducted internally within the group. On 8.6.1941 the Luftwaffe Command Staff ordered the change to the term "Absetzer" (dispatcher) to "Fallschirmjägerkampfbeobachter" (Paratroopers Combat Observer)

                    During the time it simply says "Fallschirm und Luftlande Einsatz Kreta"....either way he took part in the operation at Crete.

                    Nice book!
