I have a few cases where JGr. 200 sent encrypted reports of a day's operations by radio. These included losses but I don't know if there was a separate report to the Gen.Qu.
As for the names of people and places, my impression is that spelling mistakes were very common whenever they put something on paper. I don't think you were excused military service if your spelling was terrible!
