Re: JU 52 casualties Tunis area 15th January 1943.
Nothing to add regarding German losses, but I propose another possibility: could the Kesselring message be about a success by the German fighters (who claimed 4 P-38s shot down, and as no Ju 52 loss is found seems to have managed to protect the Ju 52) and so ordering a change of tactic, with larger and tighter Ju 52 formations under escort ?
