Re: Uffz Albert Links 5/ZG76 29.5.40

Doesn't work like that, Larry.

One is I. Gruppe Gruppenstab, ZG 26.

The other is 6. Staffel, II Gruppe, ZG 26.

To disprove your suggestion:
3101 = 2N+CN down on 4th September 1940. All in that serial number block were built by January 1940, which would almost certainly mean 2N+CN was initially 5./ZG 1, then later 8./ZG 76. One W. Nr. difference, two completely different units.

More examples:
2130 = 3U+JR
2133 = 3M+HL

3534 = 2N+DN
3536 = 3U+GN

I believe it would be a futile exercise to try that comparison.
