Same document, re: Eastern Europe-
“O.C. Close Defence Battle Units. IA reported on 1/7 that IV/J.G. 51 had been moved to BARANOWICZE in accordance with the original orders, as the orders cancelling the move had not been received.
Same source had already reported earlier on 1/7 to Fliegerkorps II that IV J.G. 51 and III Stuka (1?) were to be moved forward to MINSK on 2/7, and asked for the allocation of 5 Ju. 52s to each of the Gruppen for the purpose.”
