Missing 16./KG 2 Loss?
According to Matti and Jan Horn, three Me 410s were lost on 22-23 Feb 44. Two are known as details are in the NVM (but not Ulf Balke's book) but what about 58209/133 Fw Karl Müller (F, 15 Jun 18) and 58209/131 Uffz Kurt Bein (BF, 10 Nov 19). Both were flying together with 9./KG 2 in January 1943 and the loss would match well with the claim by Hedgecoe and Bamford of 85 Sqn. Could they be recorded under II./KG 51?
