Re: July 1940 - What really happened to II./KG 76 and I./StG 76 ?
Possibly all 'old hat' for everyone except myself, all of this can now be checked directly by anyone with the inclination since the Einsatzbereitschaftmeldungen for these events have been digitized by the Bundesarchiv and made available for all to download at RL 2-III/707b & RL 2-III/708a (via invenio).
These documents actually show the change of designation from III./KG 28 to II./KG 76 as happening in the period between 29 June and 6 July 1940, at which point the Gruppe was already in the process of exchanging its He 111s for Ju 88s, (The date shown on Michael Holm's invaluable site is as 9 July.)
