Luftwaffenkommando (Air Force Command)
Introduction



The Luftflottenkommando was the second highest tactical or field command in the Luftwaffe. It had a Führungsabteilung (Operations Branch) and other departments, branches and sections similar to a Luftflottenkommando (see there for details). The table of allowances for the Stab einer Luftwaffenkommando (K.St.N. 116 (L)) has not been located, but called for around 300 personnel. For example, on 22 September 1944 Luftwaffenkommando Südost reported a total of 320 officers, NCOs, men, Beamte (“officials” or German civilian employees) and other civilian employees assigned to its Stab.[1]
