Royal Saxon Jagdstaffel 21 was a World War I "hunting group" (i.e., fighter squadron) of the ''Luftstreitkräfte'', which was the forerunner to the Luftwaffe. As one of the original German fighter squadrons, the unit would score 148 verified aerial victories, including at least 30 destructions of enemy observation balloons.〔http://www.theaerodrome.com/aces/germany/boenigk.php http://www.theaerodrome.com/aces/germany/kuhn.php http://www.theaerodrome.com/aces/germany/hohn.php http://www.theaerodrome.com/aces/germany/haase.php http://www.theaerodrome.com/aces/germany/matthaei.php http://www.theaerodrome.com/aces/germany/schleich.php http://www.theaerodrome.com/aces/germany/thuy.php Retrieved on 5 July 2010.〕 In turn, their casualties for the war would amount to eight pilots killed in action, six wounded in action, and one fallen prisoner of war. ==History== Jagdstaffel 21 was founded on 25 October 1916, drawing from FA 40 and Kagohl 7 for its initial assignment of men. It was mobilized on 6 December 1916. It suffered its first casualty on 10 February 1917, and scored its first victory on 24 March 1917. It would serve through war's end. Two of its members would soldier on after war's end, and eventually wear general's stars in the Luftwaffe.〔http://www.theaerodrome.com/aces/germany/schleich.php http://www.theaerodrome.com/aces/germany/boenigk.php Retrieved on 5 July 2010.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jagdstaffel 21」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
