Merge article with Jagdgeschwader 71

Support - I for one support the merging of Jagdgeschwader 71 with Fighter Wing 71 as both articles are about the same division of the Luftwaffe, just different time periods. I feel they should be combined into a single article under the original Jagdgeschwader 71 name. This new article should detail the history of the fighter wing from its foundation in WWII up to present day. I see no reason to keep the history of the division separated.
