In Fürbringers' unit history Gropp is only mentioned als Chef of 2. Kp., Hstuf. Seiler was Vertreter of the Kdr. during Arnehim.

According to Stöber Bergrath took over on 6.10.44, Gropp was during Market Garden Chef of the Einsatzgruppe, formed by all surviving battle elements at Hand.

Hello Radevich,
I think the SS-Ustuf Wunderling who was CO from 2. Batterie was Hans Wunderling(SS-nr. 215.679).
I think the SS-Ustuf Heckmüller who was mess-offizier with 2. Batterie was Kurt Heckmuller(SS-nr. 456.024).

I can't find anything on SS-Ustuf Albrecht, SS-Ostuf Kröger, SS-Ustuf Kaufmann, SS-Ostuf Schöne, SS-Ustuf Wölger, SS-Ustuf Böker(I've an SS-Ostuf Böcker with SS-Pz.AA.9 and I've an Ewald Böcker who was Ustuf in 1943), SS-Ustuf Dr. Zeller(I've a Dr. Hans Zeller but he was promoted to Stubaf on 20-4-41), SS-Ustuf Schreiber(maybe Wilhelm Schreiber??), SS-Ostuf Feige(I've a Wolf Feige but he was already Hstuf in 1940), SS-Hstuf Lindner or SS-Ostuf Eckl(maybe Hstuf Helmut Eckl??).

Greetings, Mike

Adam Sponsel: 102.323

Hello Mike!

Are you sure that this is Adam Sponsel, but not Sponzel?

Maybe you have more information about Adam Sponsel?

Best regards,

Hello Mike! Hello Radevich,

Are you sure that this is Adam Sponsel, but not Sponzel? Most likely Sponsel is correct, didn't got any hits on Sponzel. I got the Sponsel-info from the Numery czlonków SS website and from the 4. SS-Polizei-Pz.Gren.Div.Officer Listing website

Maybe you have more information about Adam Sponsel?Adam Sponsel. Born on 26-12-1902. Member NSDAP: 2.715.566, Member SS: 102.323, SS-Untersturmführer in May 1940 and at that time he served with SS-Pionier-Bataillon 4 from the Polizei-Division, promoted to SS-Hstuf(or to SS-Hstuf d.R.)on 21-6-1943

Best regards, Greetings

Hello,
According to his personnel file, Dr. Wolfgang Loenicker was still Hauptsturmführer as he servered with SS-FlakAbt 9. His promotion date to Sturmbannführer was 30.01.1945.
He servered with SS-FlakAbt 9 from 01.06.1944 to 20.09.1944. He was transfered to SS-Flak Ausb.u.Ers.Rgt because he had been wounded on 06.09.1944.

Best wishes,
