    Yes indeed, assignments and all-- we never get to see exactly what these specialists DID, or where and when!

    Yes, #6 concerns retroactive pay because of seniority.

    #7 promotes him from Flieger-Ingenieur to Flieger-Oberingenieur and is hand signed by Knight's Cross (18.9.41) winner Generaloberst (19.7.40) Hans-J?rgen "Stumpff" (1889-1968)

    #8 promotion from above to Flieger-Hauptingenieur-- the signature on this one eludes me at the moment, since Luftwaffe is not my best area.

    #9 concerns pay rates based on seniority in grade

    I've seen Honor Goblets awarded to officials in this technical corps, but he seems to have been in WHATEVER that flak-related organization was from 1938 to 1945.

    Now show us his award documents! :cheers:

    thanks rick another question would he have ever been a flier on his collar tabbs he has propeler blades??thanks again for all the info on him

    All Pre-war Engineering Tabs had propellers. This is a closeup of the Rank of the man you posted. The only Difference is these have a blue edge for reserves.

    found it.

    OKL Chef TLR is Oberkommando der Luftwaffe, Chef der Technischen Luftr?stung.

    These fellas were the people involved in the development of new weapons and equipment. As he was in the Flak department that could mean some form of involvment in things like the V-1 and V-2 but also other equipment being developed for the flak arm.

    Great potential for further research there Doug, i know at least some TLR archives exist at the NARA archives in the US.

    Are there no decorations recorded in his SB? Not even a lowly KVK?
