First, this soldier served in Flieger-Ausbildungs-Regiment 14 in Klagenfurt.
The Flieger-Ausbildungs-Regiment 14 was a training unit of the Luftwaffe
responsible for
Grundausbildung of new Luftwaffe recruits.
Later, this Luftwaffe soldier was active in Nahaufkl?rungsstaffel 1.(H)/41.
A Nahaufkl?rungsstaffel conducted tactical reconnaissance in direct support
of Heer divisions.
Their tasks included:
Artillerieaufkl?rung.

FW 189.
Henschel Hs 126.
Fieseler Fi 156 ?Storch?.
Later, in some cases, Bf 109 or Bf 110 (rarely).
The Nahaufkl?rungsstaffeln were assigned to Heeresgruppen / Armeen and
worked closely together with the Heer.
During the course of the war, 1.(H)/41 was deployed, among other places, in:
France, 1940.
The Balkans / Greece.
Russia (Eastern Front), for example the southern sector.

In 1943, 1.(H)/41 was active in southern Russia (southern Eastern Front),
subordinated to Nahaufkl?rungsgruppe 1 or Nahaufkl?rungsgruppe 2. There, the

January 1943: redeployed to Voroshilovgrad (Donets Basin).
Spring to summer 1943: continued operations in the Donets region, including
Rovenk.i
September 1943: the Staffel handed over its remaining Fw 189 aircraft, and
the personnel were sent back to Germany for Umschulung
End of October 1943: likely still shortly before or during the redeployment,
as a partial withdrawal or reorganization took place during this period
