Luftgaustab z.b.V. 11

Luftgaustab z.b.V. 11

Existence questionable - not mentioned in any published sources (Tessin; Mehner/Teuber, etc.), and no field post number issued. However, it is mentioned in two separate contemporary documents. On 20 August 1940 the Stab is identified as being at Coppenaxfort/northeast France in the Calais-Dunkirk area under Luftgaukommando Belgien-Nordfrankreich. Confirmation and additional information is needed. Alternatively, this may simply be a typographical error or mistake in the cited documents. A postwar source (M.Holm) states that Lufgaustab z.b.V. 11 did exist and was renamed Luftgaukommando Holland on 1 June 1940, although he offers no sourcing for this claim. The Holm assertion obviously conflicts with the two August 1940 document citations.
