Another try

Gentlemen,

My last shot on Arnold Zeppelin was beside the mark. Here is another question on captured German crewmembers. Interested in unit, which the plane and the crew belonged to and names of two or three others, listed as missing on board of this He-111:

19.01.1944
FF Gefr. Arno Helfer (born 1923, Merseburg)
BO Uffz. Otto Kittel (born 1920)

Captured after their plane, He-111H-16 (w.n. 162407, 6N+IK) landed on enemy territory south of Skadovsk. Flight task was to transfer this He-111 from Lvov to Nikolayev. I presume that plane and crew belonged to I/KG100, but not sure as it was plane transfer flight. Can anybody confirm?

TIA
