Abschussmeldung

In a thread below I was asked to post an Abschussmeldung to this forum. Rather than have it buried, I thought I'd start a new thread.

The report is by Ltn Johannes Hager, of 6./NJG 1 on the night of February 14, 1943. This was to be Hager's first victory. His total was to be 48, although I don't know how many were actually confirmed.

Hager was awarde the RK onMarch 12, 1945. Obermaier says the his score was 47 night + 1 four engined day vitory. He survived the war.

I would be particularly interested if anyone could shed some light on the red handwritten notations at the top. Also the "181" in red pencil to the left of "Abschussmeldung"; could this indicate the 181 st Gruppe confirmation?
