3.(H)/21 June 1943
 

Hello friends,

According to all available data, in June 1943 3.(H)/21 (under command of NAGr10) was within Luftflotte 6.

But the GQM returns for 16.Jun.43 contains a loss off Charkow (the area of Luftflotte 4) and it listed among LF4 losses.

What does it mean?

Best regards,
Andrey

As far as I know Staffel flew for VII. Armeekorps of AOK 2 in July 1943 and the army operational area was on the border of HGr Mitte and South.

Hello Pawel,

thank you!

As it turned out, AOK2 documents contain the operative reports (Tagesabschlussmeldungen) of NAGr10. 16.Jun were 5 sorties (2 FW189 and 3 Hs126) and no losses. Next day a FW189 was attacked by Russian fighters and had many hits, the air gunner was slightly WIA. So the attack against the Hs126 on 16.Jun (15% damages, observer Ofw Wilhelm Lang WIA) supposedly should be included in the operative report of NAGr10 for 16.Jun. But it isn't.

It look like a part of the 3.(H)/21 was leased to Luftflotte 4 so the missions of that part didn't mentioned in the operative report of NAGr10. Or the unit name in GQM returns (and probably in NVM) is wrong.

Best regards,
Andrey
