Re: What is the correct A/C code?

KG 30's Sunday:

Ju 88A-5 WNr.0634 of the 8./KG 30, coded 4D+LS F Fw. Walter Guttmann, B Uffz. Josef Schmalze, Bf Uffz. Simon Gaber & Bs Uffz. Fritz Martin P.o.W. 26.Jan. 1941 with crew due to striking the mast of HM trawler Galvani. Crash-landing Somerton Holmes Yarmouth, Norfolk. [References: Gen.Qu.6.Abt. (microfilm roll #3)-Vol.4; Foreman, 1941-The Turning Point, I, p.82; Bines via TOCH on 27-Jul-13]

Ju 88A-5 WNr.3261 of 8./KG 30, coded 4D+AS B Ofw. Kurt Fröhlig (P.o.W.), F Oblt. Ignatz Kraft, Bf Fw. Rolf Kollmeier & Bs Uffz. Herbert Müllerstein KIA 26.Jan. 1941 due to Flak from HM trawlers Reids and Fisher Boy, near Brightlingsea.

Some times discrepancies in Luftwaffe documentation remain unresolved.

The white-outline on an aircraft's individual letter doesn't indicate Staffel. Sometimes 1./4./7. Staffeln 'white' letters were white, or white with a black outline, but there are also examples of them being black, sometimes black with a white outline.
