See-Aufkl.Gruppe 126 letter of 29.11.43:
Message of 18.11.43 from 4./S.A.Gr.126, Type of mission not known.
Location 12 km west of Budwar. Shot down over land. No information about air combat.
Ar 196A-3 W.Nr. 100430 100%. Crew: Uffz. Paul Rogge (F) and Lt. Friedrich Krukellner (B) both killed. Replacment aircraft and crew requested.

I do not know why I havent seen this before, it is just one of those things.

Well done!!
If I had looked closer at my listing over Ar 196 I would have found the same, but I did not look under date! At least it has been cleared up, that Wnr. 07 and place given in school-losses are wrong.
