Every evening briefing at the group command post of Flugleitstelle (Flight control center). The meteor sequence gives the men of the flying personnel detailed explanations about the weather to be expected with enemy and friend. These requirements are of the utmost importance for the night fighter. The commanding officer, Eichenlaubträger Major Egmont Prinz zur Lippe-Weißenfeld (Gruppenkommandeur III.Gruppe / Nachtjagdgeschwader 1) himself is the most attentive listener. Point by point is discussed, only then does he send his men to the machines to be ready to fight. The picture was taken in December 1943 at Holland by Kriegsberichter Helmut Grosse of Luftwaffe Propaganda-Kompanie.
