Looking for photos of the Stab StG77 emblem on any Ju87B from the 1939-40 period
 
Hello,

For the EoE a/c color profile project, I'm needing photos of Ju87Bs from the Gesch Stab of StG77 showing the "Eagle" design with spread wings used during the 1939-40 period. I know of one photo from the Polish Campaign era that shows Ju87B-1s with the fuselage codes S2+BA and S2+AA, but these a/c apparently did not carry the unit insignia at that time. I'm assuming that this insignia came into use before the end of 1939, and was probably carried on Gesch Stab a/c throughout 1940, although I've never a photo example of this that I can remember. Have I missed anything in the literature or on eBay?

I'd especially appreciate it if anyone has a photo of the a/c of Oberst Günther Schwartzkopff, the Gesch Kde, prior to his death on May 15, 1940 during the WC/FC. There is a known photo of the tail of his crashed a/c carrying the W.Nr. 5328, but otherwise the a/c is smashed to pieces.

Who can help?

Regards,
