In the original:

CX/MSS/T181/124

Source copied document of 11/5:

With a view to fetching the 15 all-round vision cockpits for Bf 109 which have been allocated in accordance with communication of Lehr and Ersprobungskommando 24 Großenhain, the Staffel will immediately despatch a collecting detachment to the Erla Works, Airfield Antwerp-Deurne.
3 of them are intended for the Staffel and can be at once taken over. The remaining 12 are to be sent on to workshop at Guyancourt.

NOTE: Source has reason to think that 5.(F)/123 was the Staffel concerned.
