Re: ID of possible 1./KG30 Ju88C in Norway?

I have for WNr. 0142:

13-Apr-40, F, b, Ju 88C-1, 0142, STRÜNING, Uffz. Heinz, , Z.St., KG 30, , 4D+NH, VB+WC, , 13-Apr-40, , Notlandung due to Flak., , , X.Fl.Korps/Norwegen, 5./NJG 2 Maintenance List, Medcalf, bei Narvik, b, F

My '4D+MH' incident is as follows:

07-Jun-40, , F, 100%, Ju 88C, , n.n., , Z.St., KG 30, , 4D+MH, , , 07-Jun-40, , Bruchlandung due to Flak during Tiefangriff on ore RR from Sweden., , , X.Fl.Korps/Norwegen, Gen.Qu.6.Abt. (mfm #1)-Vol.2; Shores, Fledgling Eagles. p.342, , bei Björnfjell, 100%, F

Was this last also for WNr. 0142 &/or was STRÜNING the pilot? There is no mention in the 5./NJG 2 list (apparently the Z.St. of KG 30 eventually became or was incorporated into this unit). Many, if not all, of the original Z.St. machines are listed here, either through their being damaged or being taken on strength with the unit. Unfortunately I cannot remember who the kind soul is who sent me this document - but its pretty cool. Kudos to him for rooting out this fascinating document.

I guess the question is, there being no corresponding Gen.Qu. report to the 13.Apr date, nor apparently a listing in 'Fledgling Eagles' (I can't find the book at present, did I forget to list a source?), are the incidents one & the same? The 'gotcha' being that the codes are conflicting.
