Ju 87 Panzerjäger
Some time ago (2012 maybe) a notepad was sold on ebay with notices of person somehow connected to Versuchsstaffel für Panzerbekämpfung, possibly from Rechlin.
Among other things there is also a listing of what seem to be Ju 87 Gs of Panzerjagdstaffel Stuka 1. They are listed by the letters A to H and X, Y, Z.
Aircraft 'B' is listed as lost on 14.7.43 (Notlandung mit Überschlag, gesprengt) and there is corresponding loss known (Werk-Nr. 131082).
However the a/c with letters 'A' and 'G' are also listed as lost on the ground on 20.7.43 at Orel (Jagdbeschuss und Bombe, ausgeschlachtet). I cannot find corresponding losses for Stuka 1. Maybe they were listed as losses of some non-combat unit before officially accepted by Stuka 1?
Any thoughts?
BTW there is one aircraft listed as Hptm. Rudel's with letter 'D'.
