Re: 6/KG4 Heinkel He 111P-4 (3085) - Crash 1941

Yes. How would Heinkel know to which unit their aircraft would be assigned thus how could they know to paint 5J+GP? Admittedly, unit codes mean you can identify Geschwader, Staffel & Gruppe whilst factory codes are harder hence attempts to create a Stammkennzeichen database
