Assume the 7th Flieger Division isnt wrecked on Crete for some reason and is available in Russia. Can such a capability do any good? OR would it just used up a bunch of Ju52s that were doing other important things??? (training pilots, supplying forward airfields etc..)
Possible ideas:
41)
a) Perekop Isthumus (drop behind or secure ahead of time)
b) Leningrad front (crossing the Neva or Volkhov)
c) Cutting the Murmansk railway
d) Help close the ring on an encirclement (Smolensk, Byransk)
42)
a) Drop on east side of the Volga at Stalingrad to cut off supplies
b) Air drop on Maikop / Grozny to reduce sabotage
c) Assist in Don crossing so no one thinks they have to divert 4th Panzer from Stalingrad
d) jump from Crimea across Kerch strait
