Q9+CH (WNr 131587) would be ??+G? or ??+?G in the unknown Stkz block then???
Cheers,

Kari,
I thought it might have been a replacement but not in your list. Would have been post October 1943 as no evidence of L1, only the small Q9.
On 18.10.43 I./St.G.5 was redesignated I./SG5:
Stab I./St.G.5 became Stab I./SG5
1./St.G.5 became 1./SG5
2./St.G.5 became 2./SG5
3./St.G.5 became 3./SG5
Trouble is this was already a Stuka unit just redesignated so I can't understand why the Stkz I believe this Ju87 had is not on the list. (even looking at other possible pronunciation errors.)
regards,
Mark
