Re: Lvov-Sandomierz operation July 1944
I agree with Kolya.
German individual pilots also stayed "at home" for long times, i.e. Lipfert two months in early 1944 etc. Whole german units were ordered to do so if necesssary or unavoidable, i.e. III/JG11 after their horrible fight against VVS in late summer 1944, JG3-Gruppen after the Normandy-onslaught or II/JG52 in winter 1941.
The VVS had the opportunity to give "sufficient" rest to "exhausted" units, whatever that means exactly. And they did so.
