For bombers, fighters, Zerstörer, Stuka it is easy especially as I have the official list to 6 Oct 40 but for aufklärer, it is not so easy

Yes that is a error in my database....today I found a few more...dates of awards and surnames...I think the db was originally compiled with OCR (optical character recognition) so there are quite a few errors in it.
