Royal Prussian Jagdstaffel 7 was a "hunting group" (i.e., fighter squadron) of the Luftstreitkräfte, the air arm of the Imperial German Army during World War I.
[1] On 2 June 1916, a Fokkerstaffel was founded at Martincourt; this temporary grouping was under XVI Corps of 5 Armee.
As the war wound down, Jasta 7 remained in JGr 6, under the command of Hauptmann Erhard Milch.
[1] Josef Jacobs lengthy service and long leadership while he accrued 43 victories made him responsible for single-handedly scoring about a third of the unit's wins.
However, a number of other notable aces served in the unit, including Friedrich Manschott, Paul Hüttenrauch, Paul Billik, Carl Degelow, Georg Meyer, Otto Schmidt, and Olivier Freiherr von Beaulieu-Marconnay.
