Re: the wreck of a German plane in Volos harbour

Hi, Byron...

I believe Peter van Gogh is just highlighting the presentation of the codes. DI+IH and DI+AL, when presented this way, suggest an Stkz (Stammkennzeichen - factory code), when in fact as he has pointed out, they should be D1+IH and D1+AL, where the alpha-numeric presentation suggests an operational unit code - Vkz (Verbandkennzeichen).

Regards,

Paul
