Re: Photo of Ludwig Becker in Do 215 of IV./NJG 1

Hi Mikael,
That is a theoretical possibility, but IMHO remote. The unit Wappen is a part of unit identity and flying with the Wappen of another unit could be tolerated for a short while, but it would be changed the second circumstances allowed.
Yes I have seen examples of transfer between units without change of Vbkz, but that did probably not last for long either. It is (among other things) a question of being able to identify the parent unit, when one comes across a crashed a/c maybe with hard to identify crew members.
