Emblem of EJG 1 on a 'Stick Pin'
 

Hi

I don't have an image of the EJG 1 emblem so this stick pin looked interesting. Nothing in Carlson and Meyer, or Ketley.....

Can anyone confirm that this is the unit emblem?

TIA

Hi Chris,

from JGr. Ost? Why not; then III./EJG 1?

If it is truly from JGr. Ost, it's the first time I see a pin with so much differences with the emblem painted on machines.
In particular a shield instead of a simple circle.

So, effectively, can we suppose it's EJG 1 (III./EJG 1) emblem???

Good stuff Chris, Thanks.

I would not suppose anything before we se a photo, of a EJG 1 maschine carrying any form for shield. I have never seen it in connection with this unit.

Junker,

I agree with you. I suppose too we are going to wait quite a lot :).

In the mean time, site is presenting a Pin - if not a fake - which has to do with one unit; which one? That's the question.
If not JGr. Ost?

And, forgive me, I have the right - haven't I? - to suppose something in relation with what I know, with what is available.
Doesn't mean I gave an answer, but a positive educated guess.

Last, :D, if you get a photo showing that emblem: How will you know it's EJG 1 ?

Regards, Franck.

Junker is totally correct without a photo of a machine painted with such an emblem, and also a positive original reference to he machine belonging to EJG.1 everything is speculative; whilst Franck may also be correct over it being a fake and it possibly being JGr Ost, however other emblem badges sold by the vendor do seem genuine and it would seem strange that EJG 1 went unrepresented by an emblem.... :-)

Hi Guys,

1/ It's possible, too, that EJG 1 actually HAD an emblem but NEVER wore it on planes. In that case no photos, never, ever and no evidence to expect ... well, if I follow the way you both expect such proof.

2/ My first thought is that pin is just JGr. Ost "stylised" pin... Nothing to do with EJG 1 so far.

For the rest, I don't know.

Regards, Franck.
