Oblt Gustav Sprick 8./JG 26

I have discovered the photo of a tail of a Bf 109 Wk Nr 1432 with 21 kills on it; would this be the above's ac?

Chris,

WerkNr. 1432 was the mount of Oblt. Walter Oesau when he was still with III./JG51 and Staffelkapitän of 7./JG51 on the Channel Front in 1940.

Best

There is a photo of W.Nr. 1432 in JFV 4/II, page 77, showing 13 victory tabs, and it was associated with Walter Oesau.
