I don't know if its disinformation, but Gen. Chamier-G was not at Peenemunde, but was a Luftwaffe officer who went down in the Balkans about this time.
Gen. Jesschonnek did not die of an "illness" but committed suicide after he mistakenly ordered Berlin air defenses to open fire on a group of German fighters the night of the Peenemunde raid.
