....and Mikael Holm's site says I./ZG 2 was formed from I./ZG 26 while II./ZG 2 was formed from scratch.

Looking at ZG 26 his version then slightly changes and saying that both I. and II./ZG 26 were absorbed by ZG 1 and ZG 2 which at least in part support what Evgeny says.

Holm also states that the remnants of I./ZG 2, when disbanding, went both to NJG 4 and III./ZG 1. The latter supports Gerhard's view and perhaps this is where NJG 4 enters the picture?

With regard to III./ZG 2 Holm states basically exactly what Gerhard says above. Always something I guess....

Why are the Zerstörer units so difficult to track down correctly?

Cheers
