Re: Jgr.200 1.Samml ???
Jagdgruppe 200 was a Bf 109 fighter unit operating in defence of southern France from June - Agusut 1944 (activated from an advanced training unit after the Overlord landings).
It left most of its aircraft behind when the Germans pulled out of the Riviera in the face of the Allied invasion of 15 August 1944.
If your friend's document said "JGr. 200 1. Sammlung (sanitäts)" then it may mean "JGr. 200, first collection (medical)". I'm guessing here but maybe sick and wounded of the unit were to be flown out of Dijon in Ju 52s?
I'll see if I have any information on wrecked aircraft at Dijon that would help. I researched this a long time ago, so I can't say fore sure.
