Luftwaffe losses, Kiev, 6.11.1943, asking for help.

[Andreas Brekken]

Hi, again.

Well, I have lookrd into the losses of the units again.

SG 10 (or Schl.G.10 as they are listed as in GenQu lists for this period) have registered losses only in the west until late November 1943.

You are researching losses in the great renaming and reequipping period of most Schlachtgeschwader:

Per order the renaming was to happen on October 18th 1943, and for Schl.G.10 which was a new unit, the changes were as follows

Stab/S.K.G.10 -> Stab/Schl.G.10
I./Schl.G.2 -> I./Schl.G.10
IV./S.K.G.10 -> II./Schl.G.10
II./St.G.77 -> III./Schl.G.10

I believe that there might be some losses coupled to the wrong unit during this transition, but that is for further research.

Regards,
Andreas B
