Identification of Fighter & Destroyer Groups
On 13 August 1943, the U.S. Ninth Air Force, from bases in North Africa, attacked the Wiener Neustadt Aircraft Works. To defend against this new threat from the south, Göring hurriedly transferred two Jagdgruppen (Fighter Groups) and one Zerstörergruppe (Twin-engine Fighter Group) to the south of the Reich (I believe I found this information in one of Galland's or Göring's interrogation reports). I am wondering if anyone can tell me exactly which three groups were transferred to the south of the Reich and when.
