Re: Photo with the plate of Bf 109E-7 WNr 6409 (1./SchG1) and conflicting record in 6.Abt.Qu loss return

Correct number must be 6409 which is written in the NVM. 6445 has nothing to do with this loss because it was lost a year later on 17 May 1943:
1943-05-17, I/Schl.G 101, Bf 109 E-7, 6445, Fl.Pl. Reims
Beim Start ausgebrochen und Überschlag. Bruch 100 %.

War-time error by some clerk.
