Re: Seeking info on 1./JGr126 W12+I, & unit penguin insignia on Bf109D-1s circa 11.39

Sidney,

Thanx for responding. Would you be willing to send me a copy of the photo to which you refer? We've since confirmed that the 109D-1s of 7./ZG26 - 1./JGr126 did carry the penguin/umbrella emblem, probaby on both sides of the forward fuselage. Still seeking more photos of additional Bf-109Ds from this unit, and especially the identity of the regular pilot on the 06.11.39 runway collision, and W.Nr. of W12+I written off that day. We've finished our profile of that a/c with the emblem on both sides of the aircraft. The example that we know about is very similar to the one used on the Bf110s of 7./ZG26. We are also doing "White 9+I" for 7./ZG26.

I'm sending you a PM, in hopes that you are willing to provide a copy of your photo.

Regards,

Larry Hickey
