Re: Question about KG 54 in July 1941
My man has around 20 flights in July 1941 but none mention Moscow. Focus seems to be around Kiev and Novograd for 5. Staffel/KG 54.

Re: Question about KG 54 in July 1941
Yes, Thanks for that. What I am thinking here is that KG 54 was never involved in the Moscow raids in 1941 and that whom ever first published that information (Cajus Bekker ?) either made a mistake or it was a typo with the printer. As for Bekker, he fails to mention KG 2 and KG 4 altogether.

No mention in unit history of participation in July 1941 raids on Moscow.
