Re: Ju 88 A-17 ??+DP

DB601E

I said in post before: "And there is mis-match in info +DP could indicate II Gruppen but "from 8. LT BK" might it not indicate III Gruppen (?)"

Now agreeing this is indeed unit code - It comes out as Yellow outlined Black "D" but "R" is 7. Staffeln (III Gruppen). I put some more light & contrast in that picture (and uploded again). Thus +DP turned out +DR

The Luftwaffe Unit code experts now possibly can search for all the possible Ju 88 A-4 LT (A-17) Torpedo Bombers unit coded 3Z+DR or 1H+DR. I discount this might be III Gruppen of a Schulen unit.

Othervise I thank you for sharing this picture with us, pictures of Ju 88 A´s carrying Torpedos are rather rare, and that clear view adds up to the overall "big picture".

Best regards
