NETSCAPE 737 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I am working on a project about the Battle for Cholm. I know StG 1 gave critical support to the pocket. I also know that fighters provided cover for Ju 52s, Ju 88s, Ju 87s, Gliders, Stukas ect... My question is simple. What Jagdgeschwader would have been providing cover around the pocket during Jan to May 1942? To anyone interested in the battle I highly recommend Jason D. Mark's book "BESIEGED - The Epic Battle for Cholm". 1 Link to post Share on other sites

NETSCAPE 737 Posted April 15, 2020 Author Share Posted April 15, 2020 What about the Kampfgeschwader operating in the area? Link to post Share on other sites

As far as I know, I./KG 4 and II./KG 4, equipped with He-111, were the only bomber units in the area. They flew both supply and ground attack missions. Link to post Share on other sites
