Re: IV/JG77 on 1st and 2nd July 1941
Hello Brian
at that time the Finnish AF liaison officer at the LW HQ at Kirkenäs gave very limitted info on fighter activity he concentrated almost totally on bombing ops. So nothing definitely but according to him the LW planes operating over the most northern part of the Eastern Front had by 4 Jul 41 shot down 45 enemy planes (+7 probables) and destroyed on ground circa 130. During that time the claims of German fighter and Zeströrer pilots operating up north were generally fairly accurate but the ground claim was rather badly inflated.
