Ps be aware that names might be misspelled. I found this to be the case with many names in Lfl. 6 KTB.

Please note that in many secondary sources Hptm. Andorfer's loss is recorded for 11.4.45. However, KTB Lfl. 6 says clearly 10.4.45 (I rechecked the KTB again and the losses listed above are for 10.4.45).
