The NM is not a Geschwader code but the two first digits in its Stammkennzeichnung. Griehl most likely received the information either directly from this "Schubert" or perhaps from photos/logbooks once belonging to that man.

It is not possible by simply reading this code to know which unit the aircraft belonged to.

We have a number of specialists in both WNr and STKZ so maybe one of them knows more. All I can say is that the NM+H(A) and up seems to have been assigned to Junkers and the model 88 (NM+HA was a model Ju 88S)

Usually the planes of the NM+H. serie are documented as S-3 models Wn 330167 to 330192 , nd there are only T-1 nd T-3 , T-2 model is non-existing

S-1/T-1 used Bmw 801 motors S-3/T-3 Jumo 213 motors

Production time hv to be beg. sommer 1944 nd made by Henschel , equiped with Jumo 213 of the 1021/521... block produced by "jfr" not later than june 44
This serie hs been used by LG1/KG66/KG30


But as quite all from NM+HA to NM+HL are documented nd after nil !! possibly remains that part of them hv never been produced or...


Regarding the code in the picture, nd as we only see HQ, I don't know where is coming the NM added by Griehl/Schubert, BG+HQ/S-3 could be an alternate but doubts surround this code, an other countender S-3/PY+HQ..

Possibly as , Peter is not reachable, Ed could cfm which model shows the picture S-3 or T-3 ??
