Avelde,

I have Ofw. Max Osterrieder receiving the EP on 2 Nov. 42 as a Bordschütze. If you are able to run down an Ehrenliste from that period you will be able to determine what branch he was attached to i.e. Bomber, Transport etc.

For Ltn. Kurt Mirsch I would try the following link they may have more info. on LW ground units.

Note 'CE+ZB' is the SKZ of the plane, not it's unit code. Given that machine was lost with Lfl.1, it likely went down somewhere in the Baltic off Leningrad or northern Estonia.
