Re: I./KG27 & Stalingrad Air Supply

This is out of commanders compilation from about a decade ago, so it is a bit questionable:
Stakas of 3./KG 27:
Hptm. Joachim Petzold (DKG) (21.05.42 - 22.11.42).
Hptm. Fritz Zollweg (22.11.42 - 31.07.43).

While books about the Stalingrad airlift have be few, but about to be released are:

To Save An Army: The Stalingrad Airlift Hardcover – November 8, 2022 by Robert Forsyth

and
Hitlers Air Bridges: the Luftwaffe's Supply Operations of the Second World War by Degtev Dmitry and Zubov Dmitry.
https://www.whsmith.co.uk/products/h...526789938.html

both in English!!

And mainly about personnel, has many many details of various air supply ops:

Möbius Ingo; Jürgen Huss Stille Adler - Die Ritterkreuzträger der Transportflieger 1940 - 1945 (Chemnitz:Westermann Druck Zwickau, 2019). ISBN: 978-3-9821020-0-9.

Much new material to chew on.
