Re: IV.KG54
Hello,
I digged out this relatively old thread as I have just found a photo of a Ju 88 that most likely belonged to IV./KG 54 in Luftwaffe im Focus Spezial No. 2 on page 26/27.
It was taken at Gardelegen (IV./KG 54 was based at Gardelegen in fall 1944). The fuselage code appears to be +UU, supporting Paul's statement that the standard code for IV./KG 54 would have been U, V, W for the 3 Staffeln (hence an aircraft of 10./KG 54).
However, another photo (to be published soon in a book) of another Ju 88 at Gardelegen shows the code +AX, which would support the statement by Rudi (X, Y, Z for the 3 Staffeln, hence also an aircraft of 10./KG 54).
It seems that both U,V,W and X,Y,Z - or at least both U and X for 10./KG 54 - had been used. Maybe at different times? Does anybody found some new information since this thread had originally been started?
Cheers,
Roger
