history

The origin of the 1st  Battalion of the Air Force Training Regiment was formed by the 13th  Company in List on Sylt , where the first 156 recruits began their basic military service in 1956. Regiment 1 was based in Pinneberg, where the 1st and 2nd battalions were located. In Wentdorf near Hamburg / Bergedorf they were III. and IV. Battalion housed in the Bose Bergmann barracks. The regimental commander was Lieutenant Colonel Mack. Battalion Chief III. was Major Bustorff. There was a driving duty with approx. 40 vehicles under Sergeant Beusen. She supported the training companies mainly with food in the field and Mungas (DKW) for the company commanders. In addition, courier trips to the regiment in Pinneberg were carried out. In addition to the 5-ton trucks (MAN and Mercedes), there was also a workshop vehicle, a tow truck (Faun), Sankas and buses. The motorcycles (Maika) were not used.

education

In the years 66–68, training focused on the handling of infantry weapons (G9, pistol, MG, Uzi), terrain science, first aid and civics. After 3 months of basic training, the pilots were distributed to the air bases, where specialist training followed. The NCO training for Wentorf took place in Pinneberg.

The general basic training was divided into several main areas with various subdivisions. The main focus was on the main subject of property protection in the Air Force. Great emphasis was also placed on conflict avoidance and crisis management.

The practical training was completed by a maneuver on a military training area.
