'K' report 526/1944 states that the unnamed Bm (Kilper) was a stand in for Strasser's usual Bm who was sick for this mission. While 'K' 365/1944 shows that Kilper who held EK1 and the silver war flights badge normally flew with Ofw Wirthwein who was killed/injured in a crash on take off at Echterdingen on 1-2-45 .
