Re: Question about KG 54 in July 1941
Hi OQUAIG
I have several Flugbuche to an Oberfeldwebel Radio Operator, who flew with KG 54 during Barbarossa. Luckily for us he wrote really useful comments in his logbooks. I have the following two entries for 5. Staffel, KG 54: 5th March 1942 flying out of Orscha in Ju 88 B3+KN comment: 'night attack on Moscow (Kremlin) with heavy bombs' 5th September 1942 flying out of Schatalovka in Ju 88 B3+AN comment: 'attack on Kubinka fighter airfield near Moscow. 12 direct hits on aircraft & hanger (fires).' Pilot on both occasions was Oberfeldwebel Ernst Weible (later DK & posthumous RK), Radio Operator was Oberfeldwebel Alfred Schmittka (later DK).
