Loss of two Me 262s of Kdo. Braunegg in December 1944?

Good morning,

Curiously, there are two entries for the monthly strength report of December 1944 for Kdo. Braunegg in RL 2-III/882.

The first is found among those of the Nahaufklarer on page 18. At the beginning of December, the unit had six Me 262s, but two were lost "durch feind einw. during the month:

The second is found among those of the Fernaufklarer on page 32. In this case, too, at the beginning of December, the unit had six Me 262s but all six were transferred to another unit during the month. This entry has been stroked out:

Were two Me 262s indeed lost by this unit in December 1944? If so, any ideas as to their identity? Ground losses at Schwabisch-Hall?

best regards,

Jim
