Re: Help needed for StG 2 emblem

"Calling that Do 17 a 'hack' aircarft I think is something of a misnomer - there were in fact several recorded losses of Do 17s and 110c while on recon sorties, presumably assessing targets or strike damage for their particular units."

Well, I agree. Was it a Do 17P in which Lt Gotthard Kluger, Lt Schenkel and Fw Hans Rode were wounded by ground fire over Skoplje on 10 April 41?
On 11 April 41 "T6+FA" W.Nr.4041 went missing at unknown location and under unknown circumstances; Oblt. Gerhard Krieger, Uffz Hans Leonhardt and Uffz Gerhard Kunert subsequently returned to their unit. Where did they go down?

"This looks like the Stabskette/St.G.2 Emblem - any chance of a clearer image?"

Unfortunately no, this is from a book "Luftkrieg über Afrika" Band I, p.146, aircraft has the code T6+HA and is from Stabskette/StG 2.

Cheers,
Boris
