III./JG 27 at Soucelles: CX/MSS/T226/21 CX/MSS/T226/66As for 6./JG 53, II./JG 53 was operating under the control of JG 27's Kommodore at the time. Pierre Babin told me that the 6. Staffel was at Soucelles but the ULTRAs son't make that clear. REF. CX/MSS/T224/9 KV 9269It was ordered to transfer to a new base on the 25th and operated on 26 June with 4 aircraft from Champfleury. |

Re: Ghostbombers updates
All clear regarding Soucelles as per CX/MSS/T226/21 -26 and CX/MSS/T224/9 KV 9269, Nick.
I was just confused because my original post addressed Fl.Pl. Nancy's 25 May 1944 attack - CX/MSS/T198/41 - which was not among the pages posted in post #277. Thanks again for your time and very complete follow-up, Nick. Highly appreciated. Sincerely Marc |

Re: Ghostbombers updates
Sorry, my mistake. The business of III./JG 26 at Nancy is complicated because it depends on piecing together a number of fragmented ULTRA intercepts (transcriptions of three such items attached). By the way, that 740… Werk Nummer is what's on file, so I suspect the mistake arose when the original message was being entered on to the Enigma machine.

Re: Ghostbombers updates
Nick,
I chanced on this photo- currently offered by Michael Meyer on eBay: https://www.ebay.de/itm/Foto-Luftwaf...IAAOSwXwhgALX8 Given the white MTO Theatre band, could it be a Ju 188 D from 4.(F) or 6.(F)/122 ? Cheers Marc |

Re: Ghostbombers updates
Thanks Nick - really enjoyed reading the JGr.200 article which is absolutely fascinating and incredibly detailed. Has to be sufficient material for a magazine piece at least?

Re: Ghostbombers updates
Very kind of you to say so but the lack of photos from the unit would be a big problem, I think.
