ED, please excuse my ignorance, but the correct codes for 710696 should be 4R+RN or 4R+AN (0696)?

I understood that it was previously mentioned as +AN, but the correct code seems to be +RN. This is it?

Thanks for the clarification

Ok thanks for the WNr. I had created this page in 2016 for the friends of Normandy who had discovered parts of the Ju 88.

I beg researchers to become familiar to when two codes or more codes known, or only last four of serial given in sources, I do this. I give both, aiding in where I get the info from. Choosing just one is not an option.
