It was my understanding that in the mid-1930's the Ju 52-equipped units were temporarily considered auxiliary bomber units until such time as there were enough Do 17s and He 111s to outfit them as proper bomber Gruppen. Hence, the z.b.V. designation.

Pizza deliveries? Maybe Bratwurst, Schnitzel, Schinkenbrot and Bier deliveries, but not pizza! Pizza was all but unknown in the 1930's, I think, at least in Germany.
