    Luftwaffe group Jg1 help required

    Hi,
    Would love some help with this small group, appears to have stated his military service in 1942 ,he was only 20 at the end of the war , can't find his units? the only one i recognise is Jg1.
    He joined Jg1 15/11/44 and appears to have finished 30/4/45 was Jg1 disbanded about this time? 7/Jg1 was it appears formed of instructors and trainees fighter pilots, is it possible that he was training on the He162? his flugbuch shows him as doing 90 flights as a co pilot in a variety of aircraft, and is signed off 29/8/44
    I know bomber crews at this time were being retrained and the He162 was to use inexperienced pilots. It's a pity I only have the cover of his Soldbuch.
    Any help much appreciated.
    Thanks Mark

                    He's not a pilot.....I thought he could have been going through pilot training with Flugzeugführerschule B9 but he's actually in the Technical Company.

                    However he then went on to weapons school....so a weapons specialist? One thing for certain he had not complete any solo flights and the HS-162 was a single seater.
