Re: formation date of 13./JG77

The formation of 13./J.G.77 was first mentioned in Einsatzbereitschaftsmeldung in BA/MA RL 2 III/713 dated 07.06.1941. It was made possible because of the arrival of many Bf 109T aircraft to J.G.77 at this time. In October 1941 the 13./J.G.77 in Southern Norway was redesignated 1./J.G.77 and 1./J.G.77 in the north was redesignated 13./J.G.77. (This looks more and more like an episode of "Soap" if you remember. Why make it easy if you can do it complicated)
