Chronik de Seekrieges 1939-1945, by Jürgen Rohwer, with Gerhard Hümmelchen

[Richard T Eger]

The website Chronik de Seekrieges 1939-1945 (Chronicle the Naval Warfare 1939-1945), by Jürgen Rohwer, is an extremely detailed site covering naval warfare in WW II. The site address is:

http://www.wlb-stuttgart.de/seekrieg/chronik.htm

Sections with Luftwaffe related material are:

Zeittafel (Time Board) - While I didn't search for specifics regarding the Luftwaffe, this section gives an excellent detailed chronology of events by date throughout the war.

Stichwort-Register (Reference register) - Includes information on convoys, operations, personnel, and ships names.

Quellen-Verzeichnis (Source listing) - Predominantly dealing with naval affairs, there are a couple of references dealing with aviation. Regardless, this is a superb resource.

Bildnachweise (Picture proofs) - Includes a small selection of aircraft photos.

Schlagwort-Register (Key word register) - This is a good place to start to get a bit of an overview of what is on the site. There is some aviation material here.

Suchmaschine (Search machine) - This is a good way to locate specific information. Note that aircaft are entered in with no spaces between the manufacturer and the aircraft's number, e.g., Ju88, not Ju 88.
