Need help in clarifying loss report

Could anyone clarify following puzzle loss reports - courtesy of Jim P.

Do 215 0011 L2+AS
Schultze-Plotzius, Oblt. Jörg (B)/Graichen, Uffz. Bernhard (F)
3.(F) Aufkl.Gr.Ob.d.L. 23-Jul-41 MIA with crew, cause unknown

Do 215 0048 LW+AS
Schulze-Plotzius, Oblt. Jörg (B)/Greichen, Uffz. Bernhard (F)
3.(F) 121 23-Jul-41 MIA with crew, cause unknown

There is something really weird about this loss report...

Kind regards,
Pawel

Pawel,

Do you have a typo in the StKzn of the 0048? Should it also be L2+AS (2 and W being close together on the keyboard)? If so, my off the wall guess would be to use whichever report is dated later, under the assumption that it is a correction to the earlier report.

Frank.

In such case the first cited one would be correct (Aufkl.Gr.ObdL).
