Re: Unknown Emblem on a Bf 109 E

Hi Roland,

I have no problem discussing it. If you take a closer look at the motif on the website, you might be able to discern that it apparently has more than two horns, so I do not think it is chamois.

As for the I./JG 135, later I./JG 233 emblem, that was not chamois' skull, but Alpine ibex's skull. The important distinction between the two lies in the respective size of the animals' horns - the Alpine ibex's horns are much, much bigger in size.

Regards,
Sinisa
