Re: Did JG 23 exists?
Here's another puzzle of sorts on the same theme. In the HW5 decrypts for August 1942, Western Europe section, there are dozens and dozens of references to KG 8 and KG 47. These are far, far too numerous to be a typo or anothing of that sort. The intercepts are everything from strength returns, aircraft maintenance and repair issues, to routine personnel matters to you name it. Luftflotte 3 is often an addressee along with Ob.d.L. in Berlin and various depots and schools in the Reich. These are Enigma decrypts, which the Wehrmacht believed to be secure, so why the use of non-existent units?
