Re: I./JG 27 in North Africa.

I’ve just watched the X Fliegerkorps order of the battle, which I downloaded from the Michael Holm’s site, where I./JG 27 is listed on 22/03/41 with Bf 109 E-7s. On 25/03 it was refitted with tropical equipment during its stay in Sicilian airbases. If this document is accurate, and since it matches with Prien’s loss list mentioned in the post above and with the picture evidences, I think I can assume I./JG 27 arrived in North Africa with a E-7 trop complement.

Thanks Don.
