Re: Long Range DO-215 lost Sochy /Livardia
There is no issue here from my side. We interpret the content in the book differently.
On page 166 in the book you refer to it is stated that 2./(F)121 was renamed on 24.10.1939 to 2./(F)Ob.d.L. and then became 4./(F)Ob.d.L. in September 1940.
The unit previously known as 2./(F)121 was equipped with Do 215 after it had changed name and been transfered to the Ob.d.L. organisation. All Do 215 entries in strength reports and loss lists are made under the Ob.d.L. name and not 2./(F)121. So far I've not seen any entries in documents related to the Do 215 that has been made under the unit name of 121 Gruppe. If you have come across documents that state otherwise it would of course be of interest to see them.
I'm no expert in Fernaufklärungsgruppe 121 or Aufkl.Gr.Ob.d.L. so I'm of course open to new facts.
