Hello, few month ago,I discovered a picture of a document which shows the section of a staircase built by a unit of the luftwaffe in Paris. (the staircaise in question leads to 4 shelters) The unit in question seems to be the luftwaffensonderbaustab but I found nothing about them. I don't speak german so it's difficult. I can only deduct that it's a unit from the german Air Defense Office Do you know anything about this ? And more, do you have a lead to find the archives of this unit in germany ? The picture is a part of the doument in question
Very interesting document. Luftwaffe house building unit construction project request I assume the Luftwaffe needed to re-construct or change some existing building and needed cash to pay locals. No credit cards accepted Stefan.
