Re: Nice but rare picture of 10./JG 2 - question of markings

The photo is not of the 2nd formation of 10/JG 2 (when Wieprecht was with it from Apr/May 43 to his death 4 Jul 43) but the first. The markings are peculiar to the first formation of 10 (Jabo)/JG 2 and as far as I am aware would have not been used on his FW 190. I suggest you look at my book 'Fighter Bombers over Britain' or Batailles Aeriennes No 56 'Jabos sur L'Angleterre'.
