Re: Hptm. Walter Schön

Doug:

I dont have Theo Boiten's book,

Reading "Zerstorer: Messerschmitt Bf110 in 1940" book of John Vasco and Peter Cornwell, I noticed on tha last chapters there is a photo, captioned as follows"

"Hptm. Schon and his bortfunker Uffz. Meyer in Bf110E of II./ZG 2. Note capped spinners".

On that photo there is a "Emil", with "Dragon in the shield" emblem of II./ZG2, without any white nose fast identif. elements, but color of spinner tips is the most probably wellow, marking this Bf110 belong to 6./ZG2 during late september 1940.

Also, from M.Holm's webpage:
Stab III./NJG1
