Re: Information concerning the loss of Feldwebel Alfons Wittenbauer - killed 23.12.42

Hello Rick,

according to "Luftwaffe Airfields 1935-45" (deZeng) Ssalsk was a field airstrip 165 km ESE of Rostov. On 24 Dec 1942 it became the new Ju 52 hub for the Stalingrad airlift after Tatsinskaya was taken by the Russians.

Regards
Leo
