Re: Photos: Stuka Embleme

Ed, thank you, as ever, for posting these.

The emblems are all from the St.G. 2 "Immelmann":

photo 1) 3./St.G. 2

photo 2) 9./St.G. 2

photo 3) III/St.G. 2

The 500.FF celebration is that of Uffz. Helmut Köster of the 1./St.G. 2. He was killed in the crash of his FW 190 (collided with another) 8.Aug. 1944 while undergoing conversion training.

You may observe the use of letter-number combinations on the spats, common in St.G. 2 ("F" = 6th letter).
