Stalingrad the Air battle errata

I have some errata for the book Stalingrad the air battle by Christer Bergstrom. I fine book but here is the errata: Paulus the CG of the German 6th army was not a Von.
Mention is made of Tiger Tanks with both the Stalingrad relief force and the SS Viking Division. Reality The 503rd Pz Abt did not arrive at the front until January 1943. It had 39 tanks of which 23 were Pz IIINs and the rest Tigers.
2 January it was with a Luftwaffe field unit
5 January at Stanpopol
6 January with Panzer Grenidier Rgt 128
7 January at Budgennyj and bratzkyj with Grenadier rgt 159 and a Pz Abt of the 17th panzer Division.
See the Book Tigers In Combat Volume I and the Combat History of German Tank Battalion 503
