There are a few things that don't seem right to me; e.g. :
In the info box at least half of the 'Battle Honours' do not match the 'Engagements', Is this because of Political Correctness?
In the 'Operation Steinbock' section para 2, "I/KG 6 began offensive operations with 41 JU 88s based at Chievres, Belgium." This sentence appears to be alright to me, but later in the paragraph the text goes a bit pear-shaped, i.e. :
para 3, "II/KG 6 with 36 JU 88 As assaulted Le Culot, Belgium." 'assaulted'? At that stage of the war, Belgium was still occupied by the Germans; they were hardly likely to 'assault' their own territory
para 4, "III KG 6 had 41 JU 88 A and S variants (of which a total of 37 were operational) from Brussels, Belgium." 'from'? What does this 'from' mean ? Could it be that something like 'based near' was meant?
para 4, " It took part in the first raid against London." I've added 'of the year' between 'raid' and 'against'. This would be fairly logical, as the sentence, as it stands, seems to say that London was bombed for the first time in 1944 ! That is clearly not the case.
