Re: StG.5 1942
I have on hand only information regarding the Convoy P.Q.16. I./St.G.5 made two attacks on shipping in this convoy, both on 30. May 1942. The first attack took place in the morning at about 08:05 (take-off time ??) with 16 Ju 87R aircraft ,and the second on 12:30 (take-off time ??) With 17 Ju 87R. On 30. May 1942 the I./St.g.5 had a total of 38 Ju 87R on strength. I do not have the point of take-off, but even if the unit was located at Rovianemi , its airceaft were quickly moved to other locations like Kirkenes or Banak for operations. My Source Reference is BA/MA RL7/498.
