Hi there Franck! Glad you pick up again your good old habits to boost our interests ;-)

Pic no 10 is a real head scratcher: labelled as being a JG 52 plane shot in France, 1944. It actually shows the pilots of 2./JG 11 atop of one of the Stab /JG 11 Bf 109 G-6's in Husum, early 1944. The third from left is Uffz. Siegfried Rudschinat. Information courtesy of Gorm Helge Grønli Rudschinat, Bf-109 Messerschmitt Group, Facebook.com, 14 March 2014.

Cheers

Hi Marc,

Thank you for this precious info!

All the best, Franck.

Re: eBay: Bf 109s. 15/03/14
 

You're most welcome Franck!

With an important correction though: Gorm Rudschinat informed us that this pic is actually showing all the pilots of 10./JG 11 at Aalborg Ost, early 1944. First one, holding the dog is Oblt Heinz Grosser, Staka 10./JG 11.

Cheers
Marc

Ah ...

Alois Jakob (Fw.) the owner of the photoalbum from which this picture is extracted was effectively in 10./JG 11.
Better like this...
Are we reading "Bruder", wrote on picture?

And you can wisely compare with the following photo: http://www.me109.info/display.php?a=e&fid=7402 (Background constructions).

Regards, Franck.

Re: eBay: Bf 109s. 15/03/14
 

Yep, I did so Franck, for the buildings and for seeing Rudschinat at close quarters. Do you know more about Alois Jakob ? I checked out Prien but did not find him... And we do read Brüder, with Umlaut... though I wondered if we should read Bründler.

Cheers
Marc

Re: eBay: Bf 109s. 15/03/14
 

Nothing more than what is written in the Kracker list:
i.e:
Fw 190A-8 Werk # 731034 "Blue 2" (dam 4/5/44) & WIA 5 April, 1944, during aerial combat with a P-47 in the Alencon area; DOW 22 July, 1944. One known victory, his 1st, a P-47 in the Alencon area on 5 July, 1944.
...
I suppose that "Alençon" is linked to the seller "France" caption.

And Bruder & Brüder are both family names, too... Didn't find any Bründler though.

Cheers my friend.
Franck.

Hello,

I'm particularly interested in knowing if anyone has any identifications for the Bf109E crash photos, especially "White 14" of I./JG3. I don't recall seeing other images of this incident in France during 1940.

Regards,

Re: eBay: Bf 109s. 15/03/14
 

Yes Larry,

One of the reasons I did start this thread!

"Rote 2" (Sic), a Bf 109F of 2./JG 3 could very well depict the Lt. Erich Buchholz accident at St Pol Brias on 16-May-1941. 95%. (Bf 109F-1 WNr. 5727)

Regards, Franck.
