Re: II.(Schlacht)Lehrgeschwader 2

Hi, all

With regards to your pilot flying a Bf 109 as he was a pilot in the II.(S)/L.G.2 the answer is 'could have'... and I will elaborate:

This unit operated a mix of Focke-Wulf FW 189, Messerschmitt Bf 109E and Henschel Hs 123 in the beginning of September 1941

The FW 189s were attached to the Gruppenstab which also had 2 Bf 109E on strength - the Bf 109Es were in 4., 5. and 6. Staffel, while the 10. Staffel had Hs 123.

The FW 189s were gone by September 27th (one being lost on September 22nd 1941), but depending on Staffel assignment your pilot could still be either flying a Bf 109 or a Hs 123.

Regards,
Andreas B
