Re: 4.(S)/LG2 Insignia: background color, origins & relation to personal insignia of Adolf Galland

Hello Many,

Thanks for your comments. What is your source for Galland being TO in the Stab of II.(S)/LG2 in 1939 after he was first assigned to II.(S)/LG2 on on 01.07.39? There is about a six week gap from that date and before his known FB starts with entries showing him flying L2+AM (as StaKap of 4. St) on an almost daily basis. So, this information is credible, but I need whatever documentation there is for your statement. Presumably he would have been flying Hs123 L2+CB or DB if he was T.0. in the Stab if this info is correct. Are you aware of any photos from the immediate pre-war or Polish Campaign showing an Hs123 of the II Gr Stab? Are you aware of any photos of his L2+AM that he flew for the last few months of 1939?

Regards,
