Re: Did KG 26 hit the cruiser Molotov in 1942?
Also a question about He111 WNr.4816 from 4./KG26 lost 3.Aug.42.
According to Steenbeck's "Die Spur des Löwen" (and probably to GQM return), board code was 1T+JH. But according to "Seaplanes over the Black Sea" by Roba and Craciunoiu it was 1H+MM. The last one is certainly from 4./KG26, and British radio intelligence heard really 'MM' plane in August. 1T+JH looks like ex-1./KG28 board code. Really, 1./KG28 had operated over the Black Sea along with II./KG26 earlier and probably handed over its planes to II./KG26. But why old board codes were used in II./KG26, if the info about 1T+JH is correct?
