I can recommend Hikoki Publications' "On Special Missions - the Luftwaffe's Research and Experimental Squadrons 1923-1945" which has a chapter on Zircus Rosarius.
As well as Hptm "Ted" Rosarius, there were Hptm Edmund Gartenfeld, Obstlt. Theodor Rowehl, Edgar Petersen, Maj. Walter Dahl, Fw Herbert Gold (killed flying the Typhoon T9+GK),Oberst Herbert Ihlefeld, Hptm Hans Philipp, Lt Karl-Heinz Messer; these names I found in a brief flick through the chapter...
Book references: ISBN1 903223 33 4
Authors: Smith, Creek, Petrick, Herrera
Published 2003 in the UK.

Oberst Walter Dahl also was never a member of Zirkus Rosarius.
he was in JG 3 and JG 300 and EJG 2
In the book, several individuals are mentioned in connection with Zirkus Rosarius, but it is sometimes not clear what their connection actually was - so that is why I listed them here... the book mentions them in connection with the unit, so that is that! Nit-pick all you want, I can only mention what is in the book!!!

Re: Rosarius Circus
Hi,
I'm looking for info about Mosquito ariplane that belonged to Zirkus Rosarius. Where should I look to find something? I've already searched through the net. Are there any books on this unit apart of:
- On Special Missions - the Luftwaffe's Research and Experimental Squadrons 1923-1945
- Geheimfluge Der Versuchsband des Oberkommandos der Luftwaffe 1939-1945.
Thanks for help.

Re: Rosarius Circus
