I'm assuming you are asking because of a signature. If so, do you have an image?

"i. A." Otl. "Frhr. v. Beschwitz"
(so, he was not the Kdt. but only an officer serving in that WBK.)

Otl. too refers to this officer (Frhr. v. Beschwitz) who was Otl. and serving in this WBK.(but he was not Kdt. d. WBK.)

This is the signature of Luftwaffe Oberstleutnant z.D. Werner Freiherr von Beschwitz (1884-1972).
There are times in history when staying neutral means taking sides.
