I would appreciate any information on Bf-109E-1 Werk # 109-3620. Also, any websites or sources I might check.

Thank you
 
The Bf 109E-1 belonged to the serials block of 3 380 - 3 664 made by the Arado Werke, Warnemünde probably in 1939/1940. She belonged to the I./JG77, 14./JG77, marked with "Yellow 1". The pilot: Uffz Wilhelm Kastens, an airfield: Petsamo, MIA on 22nd August, 1941 near Taibela, south of Murmansk, LaGG of the 145 IAP . Mombeek MIA List. The Magnus Report lists his victories as 5, however none on the OKL Claims List.

#109. 3620 had two sister ships (# 3619 and #3627 that were shot down over England on September 1, 1940. I am trying to find some information if #3620 was involved in the Battle of Britain or what its early history may be.

Bf-109 E-1 # 109.3620 was shot down when it belonged to I./JG77, 14./JG77. Would there be any records that showed which unit #3620 may have been with in 1939/40 time frame?
