Gefechtsverband Kuhlmey 1944 - pre history
Esteemed forum members;
I am trying to gain a better understanding re the "pre history" of Gefechtsverband Kuhlmey. On 16 June 1944, Kuhlmey's various squadrons departed Tallinn, Estonia, and headed for Finland. These units were:
Stab SG 3 (Kennzeichen S7+)
I. Gruppe/SG 3 (Kennzeichen S7+)
Stab II./JG 54 (no Kennzeichen)
IIII. Staffel/JG 54
V. Staffel/JG 54
I. Staffel/NAGr. 5 (no Kennzeichen)
I. Staffel/SG 5 (Kennzeichen Q9+)
Supporting:
TGr. 10 "Italien" (Kennzeichen 8Q+)
I am encountering some challenges in ascertaining where these units were based "prior" to being reassigned to Kuhlmey's group. I am assuming that all of the above formations were based in reasonable proximity to Estonia/Finland, which would allow for a rapid transfer.
I would be most appreciative of any assistance efforts re the above query.
Thank you kindly in advance.
Regards;
Arvo L. V.
