I./JG77 (JGr. Stavanger)
1.(Z)/JG77 formed 6.41 in Herdla from 2./ZG76 (Bf 110).

But in the same way very strange thing:
Gunther Tonne's claims are listed with his 9./ZG 76, but
Helmiuth Viedebannt,
Karl-Fritz Schlosstein,
Rolf Hermichen (originally 8./ZG 76 pilots) and
Gunther Reineke (originally StaKa 8./ZG 76) as claims are listed as with "Z Kette I./JG77".
The most strange: thing that when 1.(Z)/JG77 was reformed into 6.(Z)/JG5 (on25.1.42), then 10.(Z)/JG5 (on 16.3.42), and untill 26.6.42 (when it was finally renamed into renamed 13.(Z)/JG5)
Oblt. Karl-Fritz Schlosstein was its Staffel Kapitan! And
Viedebannt,
Hermichen,
Reineke came back to their own 8./ZG 76, but Karl-Fritz Schlosstein not!
So 8./ZG 76 is probably was his original staffel. But Michael Holm tells directly that 1.(Z)/JG77 formed 6.41 from 2./ZG76 (not from 8./ZG 76)...
I could only propose that some crew's that in spring 1941 some 8./ZG 76 pilots were attached to 2./ZG 76 to form 1(Z)./JG 77, but some of them was moved back to ther original staffeln and some of them stood in Zerstorerstaffel./JG77 - JG 5.
Best wishes.
