The plane was a He 115C WNr. 2777, no code available for this one.

Thank you Gerhard

I can only add that the plane carried its Stammkennzeichen. The unit code for Fl.Erg-Gr.(See), 6H+, was not introduced until much later.

For that month, 2 contenders a rare F4+GL nd a GA+CQ

Most probably the F4+ is S4+ , so remains only the GA+CQ , GA+C. originaly given by some Schleuse or directly by Erg.Fl.Gr.See or the Fl.Waffensch. See 1
