Re: Photo of Ju160 on eastern front?

Thanks to Christian and Peter. The first of the newly attached photo is the same scene as the Lw in Focus photo, but from a different angle. The emblem is not visible on this one and the only addition is the appearance of temporary camouflage in the form of foliage. Again there is no clear proof that the aircraft has been scrapped at this point.

The second photo is then presumably later. This photo shows the emblem. It is a better depiction than the LW im focus photo, although still not totally clear. My impression is that the emblem resembles far more closely in shield shape and contents that of III./JG 77 than that of Kurierstaffel Lappland…although it is not identical to it.
