JG 77 pilot ID
 

Any idea who flew the 12 ( JG 77 ) depicted in Italy 1943 ?

Pilot depicting wearing Aeronautica officer cap must be
a crew of the JG 77 rather Italian .

The pilot in the picture is an Italian pilot, Lt. Oddone Colona, photographed with the III/JG-77 Bf-109

Hi,
Both pictures can be found in Jochen Prien's history about the history of JG 77 on page 1643, vol.3. The caption on the pictures states,translated:
" ... White 12 after transfer to the Regia Aeronautica in July 1943, for the establisment of the 150. Gruppo Autonomo..."
The Italian codes and unit numbers are still to be done.
Kind regards,

Dirk
