Re: Luftflotte 3 ORBAT Pre-6 Jun 44
In addition to the original post, Alfred Price includes I. and III./KG 54.
Also KG 40 was based in west and south west France, primarily to operate over the Mediterranean and Atlantic although it was available in the event of invasion and the same is true of I. and III./ZG 1, III./KG 100, FAG 5 and 3.(F)/123.
In the south (mainly for Mediterranean operations) were 1.(F)/33, I. and II./KG 77 and I. and III./KG 26. 2./NAG 13 was in the south, Stab, 1. and 3./NAG 13 were in Brittany.
Under Stab FAG 123 — Single-engined reconnaissance: 4.(F) and 5.(F)/123. Multi-engined: 1.(F)/121; 3.(F)/122; 6.(F)/123; Westa 51; Westa 2; Sonderkdo. Ob.d.L.
Parts of fighter training units in France could be activated for operations when the invasion came. Aircraft of SG 103 were also briefly sent into action.
