Ofw. Jackstadt Jackstadt had flown the Me 410 with 2.(F)/122 in Italy throughout 1944 and his last operational flight with that Staffel had been from 12.45–14.46 (local time) on 13 December. This was in F6+VK with his usual Bordfunker, Uffz. Schütz. According to Harald Rabeder’s »Die Knüllenkopfstaffel«, Jackstadt transferred a week later to 3.(F)/Nacht in Brieg (Brzeg, Poland). On 1 January 1945 that Staffel was renamed 1.(F)/123 and moved to Burg-bei-Magdeburg for conversion to the Ar 234. While there he logged five flights on the type between 20 January and 8 February. NOTE: Rabeder uses the spelling “Jackstedt” whereas my handwritten source for the name (BA-MA RL10/419: Kriegstagebuch 2.(F)/122, 1. Januar 1944–5. April 1945) is consistent in using “Jackstadt”. |
