Inspector of Fighters
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Inspector of Fighters (German language: Inspekteur der Jagdflieger redesignated to General der Jagdflieger) was not a rank but a leading position within the High Command of the German Luftwaffe in Nazi Germany. The inspector was responsible for the readiness, training and tactics of the fighter force. It was not an operational command.[1]
