BTW, as it was said earlier JG51 records are not too much detailed. It is possible that Muncheberg was a pilot of one of the stab JG51 Me-109s listed in casualties without pilot recognition.
NBE1942: I am sort of confused by your post. What is the source of your information? Muncheberg was Kommordore of JG 77 in Tunisia, not JG 51. The Gen.Qu.6.Abt records state it was Dec 10 and only that he crashlanded after being hit in the engine during a Luftkampf.
