[Matti Salonen]

I have from the NVMs:
1941-05-24, Tr.St./VIII.Fl.Korps, Ju 52/3mg5e, 7104, DD+ZY, Bolkowo
Flugzeugführer Fw Niemann, Herbert, +
Bordfunker Uffz Tanzer, Josef, +
Bordmechaniker Ofw Pfeil, Ludwig, +
Fluggast Uffz Cichos, Edmund, +
Fluggast Uffz Schrader, Werner, +
Fluggast Uffz Zahnke, Otto, +
Absturz und Aufschlagbrand infolge Felsberührung. Bruch 100 %.

Has the RLM requested the manufacturers assign the SKZ-blocks to the aircraft in consequtive order, i.e. alphabetical versus numerical order. Because there are occasional gaps, could also the order have been changed to confuse enemy intelligence?
