Notes regarding Kurt Metzner
The items marked “Kurt Metzner München, Sept.1983” is an attempt, compiled from his diaries, flight logs, photo albums and based on his very sketchy memory, and therefore unfortunately does not claim to be completely accurate, to produce a chronicle of events that befell 2.(H)/31 during its existence. He belonged to the staffel from January 1940 to December 1943.
In December 1943 he was reassigned to the Army.
Beginning with the Western campaign he had been active as a chronicler and photographer of the Staffel. Already in August 1940 he had compiled a "Staffel album" and a chronicle from the Polish campaign onwards from his own pictures and those of the Staffel’s Bildstelle (Ofw. Fiedler, Fw. Mauksch).
He worked on both things continuously. Heinrich Thomas had secured a printing company in Dortmund, which received the printing order in August 1941. The album was lost in an air raid.
A 2nd Staffel album came back from censorship in the RLM in April 1942 with many “annoying corrections”. Thomas took it to Dortmund in May 1942. In September 1942, the Dortmund firm received another printing order from the Staffel. 212 (prepaid) orders were on hand for the album. The company finally could not fulfill the order; the album came back to the Staffel. Kurt Hoffmann kept it with him until the end of the war and finally destroyed it at his last duty station.
