Cord Tietjen in Holland 1940

[Heeresspringer]

Does someone has a period document which show the corect unit or the company Cord Tietjen was assigned to in the Fall Gelb mission 1940 in Holland?

There are some different sources with different facts:

Eric Queen : platoon leader in 7./FJR1
Klaus Peters: platoon leader in 5./FJR1
Gliederung und Stellenbesetzung: leader of the second platoon in 7./FJR1
Jean Yves Nasse: 5./FJR 1
Ritterkreuzträger der dt. Wehrmacht: 5./FJR1

Which source is correct ?

[Heeresspringer]

Queen and Gliederung und Stellenbesetzung also mention a Lt. Hans - Georg Tietjens from 5./FJR 1...

Perhaps they mixed up both names ?

Hey...

Today i got scans of 2 period docs which prove that Cord Tietjen was platoon leader in 7./FJR 1 ...

Seems that a lot of autors made mistakes ...
