Re: Bf109 Sütterlin
Possibly of minor interest to a few:
II./LG 2
…………………
Dec 41: by December the Gruppe was in support of the heavy defensive fighting along the entire front from Moscow northwest to Lake Ilmen that began with the Soviet counteroffensive on 5 Dec. Base changes were rapid and frequent as the Gruppe attempted to support the German retreat toward the west. On 13 December 4.Staffel (at least) was operating from Staraya Russa at the south end of Lake Ilmen.
6 Jan 42: now based at Dugino/ 65 km south of Rzhev, where it was renamed I./Schlachtgeschwader 1 on 13 January 1942.
It is quite possible that detailed documentation is lacking for the Gruppe's last few months.
