Re: Sonderstaffel 172
Yep, the forthcoming airborne and air-landing operation on Crete was quite clear from the intercepts by the end of the first week in May when Sonderstab Buchholz and Fliegerfuehrer XI. Fliegerkorps finished assembling 12 or more Transportfliegergruppen and Luftlandegruppen on airfields in Austria, Romania and Bulgaria. And the huge fleet of Lastensegler, too. But by then, there wasn't much the Brits could do about it.
