Was Fhr. Rolf Braband of III./J.G. 11 one of the missing in the Bodenplatte Operation?

http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/album....pictureid=1727

I do not know what to make of this anomaly found on page 100 of RL 2-III/1172 in the on-line Bundesarchiv. File 1172 is of the missing crews of the Luftwaffe in January 1945, many of 1.1.1945. It was deliberately cut and pasted together and this unusual handwritten entry was deliberately included. This entry and the one below it seems to have been rejected by a later clerk or researcher. I can't find Braband's name in John Manrho's opus among those lost from III./J.G. 11 and there may be a reason for this. Any information would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Jim
