Unidentified Do 217 J-1 or J-2

This well known photo is apparently a J-1 or J-2 due to the hardened nose but with what unit? The flag is for the CO of a Luftflotte but which one?

Hello!

Cheers,

PS Matti Salonen may be able to help with the Do 217 Kemi to Alakurtti and back records.

Adriano: As I said it is a well known photo but not of a night fighter unit
