Can someone please confirm that this EKM related to 9/JG 27?

Hi Chris,
In 1940, 51518 was used by 2/JG1, but as you will know, these numbers were changed from time to time, for intelligence reasons.
Joe.

Odd-on checking I have Oblt Hans-Folkert Rosenboom of 9/JG 27 as 51518/4 but on the loss records as 3 Staffel/JG 1, which would therefore accord with 9/JG 27. The chap I am interested in was 51518/18 so probably joined I/JG 1/III/JG 27 in 1940

Loss return for Fw Schulz and Gef. Glockner of 9/JG 27 on 18.9.40 gives both as 51518.
