KG 4's raid on Moscow
KG 4 was based in Prowehren in East Prussia when it raided Moscow in July 1941. The distance to Moscow from Prowehren is 2250 km round trip. Is it possible they landed to refuel somewhere enroute, as KG 2 did, and if so where ?
Thanks in advance Oquaig

Re: KG 4's raid on Moscow
The author covers the Moscow raids on pp.145-46, but makes no mention of any intermediate stops for fuel. If I had to venture a guess, it might be Orsha.
