In the absence of the Reichsminister für Volksaufklärung und Propaganda, mission reports have been posthumously compiled by Oberfeldwebel Raptor1.

Mission 2:
Objective: II./JG 5 escort bombers to Orienbaum

Found ourselves in the air escorting the entire Luftwaffe to demolish the poor town of Orienbaum. Following the most brilliantly planned flight path laid out by the OKL, we found ourselves flying over Kronstadt as Soviet aircraft were taking off from the airfield below; LaGG-3s and Stalin Carriers. Having determined these to be vital to the Soviet war effort, we executed a steep dive to engage. Immediately following the start of the engagement, Arclight's cockpit was shot out by long range fire and he was killed. I went after some of the Soviet fighters and, in the course of high speed maneuvering, blacked out. I regained consciousness just high enough above the frozen sea below to snap my wing in an attempt to pull up and subsequently died. Meanwhile, Task Force was engaged by a horde of LaGGs, blacked out and died. HunterICX successfully engaged and destroyed two Stalin Carriers before being damaged by enemy fire. He attempted to bug out but was chased down by enemy aircraft and killed.

OKL Assessment: Vodka shipment stopped. Mission totally successful.

Mission 3:
Objective: II./KG 30 bomb enemy battle tractors in Putilovo

Took off from Siverskaya in overloaded Ju 88s and headed (very slowly) for the target area. En route, we encountered a Soviet train armed with an anti-aircraft gun which expertly shot down one bomber of our squadron. Overhead, enemy fighters engaged our escorts at high altitude. Arriving at the target area, we successfully managed to destroy the bridge north of Putilovo and most wildlife in the area. Enemy tractors were apparently unharmed. Shortly afterwards, HunterICX stalled his aircraft into the ground, killing himself and his gunner, Task Force. On the way back to base, we encountered the Soviet train continuing its advance on our territory near Ulianovka. Going to battle stations, Arclight fired at it with the aeroplane's machine guns while I engaged the train in aerial jousting. The train won. Having lost an engine to the train's gun after successfully failing to deliver damage to it, we bugged out to the nearest airfield and managed to effect an emergency landing.

OKL Assessment: Enemy ground forces utterly destroyed. Mission totally successful. Reports of communist train activity behind friendly lines are overrated.

All photographic evidence of these engagements has been confiscated for security reasons. (Also, I can't take screenshots without crashing the game)
