Re: Luftflotte 4 losses Apr.-Jun.1943: a comparison of the different data

An interesting example from Summarische Verlustmeldungen of TGr10 - ex KGr zbV5 and soon became I./KG55. In the spring of 1943 this group was used as a bomber unit (He111).

29.Apr.43 two planes total loss on the ground due to strafing (Bodenverluste durch Bordwaffenbeschuss) with reference to GQM daily return on 12.May43.
The problem is that in the GQM daily return on 12.May43 the relevant records are absent, and for the whole of April and May there are no such losses of this group.

Whether it's unknown losses, and the reference isn't to the daily compilation of the Gen.Qu.6.Abt., but maybe to a report from the unit, or it's just a few mistakes in one line.

Any ideas?

Best regards,
Andrey
