Flugbuch Abbreviations.

I am currently researching a Flugbuch which contains several bracketed abbreviations present in the descriptions of the mission detail.

Those that I can identify are as follows:
(LK) = Luftkampf
(LF) = Leicht Flak
(SF) = Schwere Flak
(SF u J) Schwere Flak und Jäger
(KF) Keine Feindberührung

However, I do need help with the following:
(SL) ?
(MSe or l) ?
(SMLF) ?

Any help whatsoever really will be a great help. Hopeful in anticipation.

Regards Richard.

Thank you for your comment, quite feasible that it is indeed the abbreviation for SMLF.

Anyone else able to offer any suggestions at all?

Regards Richard.

Thank you for your reply.

In this instance the Flugbuch was for a Bordfunker serving in ZG 1, at the time fighting on the Eastern Front with Bf 110 aircraft. Consequently, I am not sure of any mission which could relate to an amphibious aircraft, although I do appreciate you posting a reply.

Regards Richard.

Re: Flugbuch Abbreviations.

SL could be schwere Luftabwehr. I do not understand the MSe or I. Does the or imply the entire MSe? I could stand for Infantrie.

Regards,
Norbert
