Re: II./JG 51 on 11 September 1944

Jochen,

Could it theoretically be the case that the aircraft were on hand with II./JG 51 when they were lost, but were recorded on the Bewegungsmeldung of another unit, as part of a larger transfer of both serviceable and damaged aircraft to that unit which may have occurred during September? I believe this could sometimes be a phenomenon in Luftwaffe record-keeping, though I am certainly not qualified to comment how often this may have happened or whether it explains this specific case.

Kind regards,

Dan
