Unit of Storch SU + LL (?) Used in Mussolini's Rescue
I am trying to determine the unit of the Storch used by Otto Skorzeny in his famous rescue of Mussolini on 12 September 1943. As far as I can determine from some very grainy film, the aircraft was coded S U + L L.

The Storch was flown by Hauptmann Heinich Gerlach:
