JG 51 in September-October 1943
Does anyone know where I, III and IV/JG 51 went in September 1943?
At the beginning of the month it was at Poltava and in October it was in Orscha but where was it in between and does anyone have any dates for moves? Tango Echo Dog

Re: JG 51 in September-October 1943
They were mainly fighting near Yelnya and Smolensk (central sector) until end of September. Late that month, some Staffeln moved southwards and claimed in the areas of
- Poltava : 4 claims on 30.09.43, - Chernobyl (sic!) 3 claims ca. 4.10.43 but were alrerady back in the central (nealry North) sector on one week later: - Nevel / Vitebsk / Smolensk / Gorki claims starting 7.10.43 In late October, IV./JG51 went back South: - Krementschug - Ukrainka - Kriwoi Rog - Alexandria Seems they had a pretty nomadic way of life in these days. This is result of a very short (and maybe faulty) analysis from claim lists.
