7th NIB
This enters the game as a reinforcement on 31st July 1941 at Kherson (89, 107).
Two sources (Pettibone and Forczyk) list this unit as being formed in August (which I admit is very close to 31st July) but one gives an exact date of 17th August. Both list it as being formed in Sevastopol.
With this in mind I would suggest that this unit arrive on 14th August on or adjacent to Sevastopol.
8th NIB
This also enters the game as a reinforcement on 31st July 1941 adjacent to Sevastopol (95,122).
Two sources (Pettibone and Forczyk) list this unit as being formed in August, and the 13th September respectively. Both list it as being formed at the naval base in Novorossiysk (115,120).
With this in mind I would suggest that this unit arrive on 11th September at the naval base in Novorossiysk (115,120).
Thoughts, comments anyone please.
