Some He III codes in Western Desert
 
Hi Guys.
I am trying to sort out some He III codes. My feeling is that they are just Stamkirchen codes, as I cant find them under any published Luftwaffe codes.
Do any of you guys recognise any specific Unit codes from the following??
1.SK+IO
2. H6+HR
3. RD+Z?
Thx a mil
Stefaan

If it has no numerics, it is an SKZ. H6 is therefore a unit code. I don't know which unit either.

Hi Stefaan,

He 111H-6 WNr. 4279 SK+IO from Sonderkommando Dora, found damaged at Castel Benito January 1943

H6+HR not possible to identify a unit or aircraft

RD+Z? He 111H-6 WNr. 77xx, some of these were in North Africa

Hi Guys.
Thx a mil for the gen.
I am worried about the H6 code.
Looks like it was painted over something and may be incorrect.
Will try to find out the real story.
The other two helped.
