I found via web only:
  • ? -> Stab/Jabogruppe Afrika -> Stab I./Sch.G.2
  • 10.(Jabo)/JG 53 -> 1./Jabogruppe Afrika -> 1./Sch.G.2
  • 10.(Jabo)/JG 27 -> 2./Jabogruppe Afrika -> 3./Sch.G.2
and http://www.ww2.dk/oob/bestand/jagd/bjgafrika.html

Thanks for help!
Go to the website of the UK National Archives, then to "search the catalogue". Choose "advanced search". Under search terms enter "Cairo", for "file series" put DEFE3 and for dates put 1942-43. This should get you the files of deciphered German Army and Luftwaffe signals, which you can view free online. There are a large number of signals from Africa and this Gruppe is mentioned frequently.
