Hi gents,
OK Jim, He flew 4148 during his brief Balkan campaign, displaying 21 victories, the last one he got over Canturbery. Hence his Tally is shown on fin including LC five ones.
If so the 17 victories figure we can see on the said picture shows us his plane just after 7/9/1940, that is a couple of days after his arrival in Stab II./JG 27.
That is: most probably
http://www.me109.info/display.php?a=e&fid=4625 is the said plane still wearing the early 1940 Camouflage.
And
http://www.me109.info/display.php?a=e&fid=1562 is most probably the same plane but wearing the late camo.
Note the old model of safety jacket, and, of course, that picture isn't taken in Larissa but in France; Mechanical fatigues don't match with Grece period and weather anyway.
Cheers, Franck.
