KG55 losses 10.5.42

Hi, I have 3 losses from 8/KG55 on 10.5.42 in the Kertsch area, all 100%.
I have all three W.Nr's these being 7171,4990, and 7176, however I can't match these to the crews listed by Wolfgang Dietrich in his book " Ein Chronik Kampfgeschwader 55 ".

These being Ofw Nebeter, Uffz Pfifferling, and Lt Helmuth Ortmann.
Could anybody confirm the order please.
Best regs,
Steve.

Re: KG55 losses 10.5.42

Good evening Matti, thank you for checking these for me, now I can tie these three losses up.

For Ortmann I have listed himself, Skrypek, and Pyrscalla missing , any mention of his Bf or Bs as having returned. His usual Bf was Uffz Fritz Jacob and the gunner Gefr.Albert Muller.
Are the aircraft codes listed in your records?
Kindest regs,
Steve.

No info on other crew members. Only two codes: 4990 G1+DS and 7171 G1+GS.
