Hello Florian

For a Koske picture, see Mike Miller's website :
http://www.geocities.com/%7Eorion47/
in the section Das Heer - Generalmajor, you will find a pic of him.

I would like to have a picture showing Capesius but unforunately nothing has come yet.

From a general point of view, does anybody know a book showing RKT from the Kampfflieger units ?

Best Regards
Denis

Yes, I have:

Brütting, Georg, Das waren die deutschen Kampfflieger-Asse 1939-1945 (Stuttgart, 1981). From page 188:

CAPESIUS, Kurt.
Born 12 February 1919, he received the Ritterkreuz on 30 November 1944 as a Hauptmann and provisional Kommandeur of III./KG 66. Capesius died in October 1958 from injuries sustained in a plane crash.

Additional Information:

CAPESIUS, Kurt. (R, DKG). 26.06.41 Oblt., appt Staka 10./KG 51 (to 26.06.42). 15.06.43 Oblt., appt Staka 2./Verbandsführerschule KG 101 (to 20.03.44). 01.04.44 promoted to Hptm. 09.44 Hptm., appt provisional Kdr. III./KG 66 (to 15.11.44).

No pics.
