Luftgaukommando & Geheime Feldpolizei

Hello,

I have a question for you LW guys.
I was wondering which was the Luftgaukommando office in charge for the Geheime Feldpolizei (L) units subordinated to it.
Possibly Abt. Ic?

Many thanks
Tom

Thanks for the correction Larry.
Can you point the Luftflottenkdo office in charge for the GFP please? From your link is not clear enough to me.

Many thanks
Tom

Abt. Ic/Luftflottenkdo. ____. Unlike the Abt. Ic/AO of the Heeres Armeeoberkommandos, the Luftflotten did not have a formal AO (Abwehroffizier) position, so anything of a counterintelligence, police, secret field police nature that came up was handled by the Ic (intelligence officer/intelligence branch) of the Luftflottenkommando. The Ic in turn then notified the attached GFP personnel to determine what need to be done, i.e., investigate alleged sabotage of state property, alleged treason, black market activity, etc.
