Re: 8.Staffel / Jagdgeschwader 51 Mölders Brass Plate
According to Prien, Stemmer and others JFV 12/II, there was apparently no significant event for 8./JG 51 on 19 September 1943, so perhaps it was some of the Staffel's anniversary?
6 May 1945 - likely the date the Staffel, and the rest of the III. Gruppe was disbanded.
8./JG 51 was renamed 10./JG 51 on 15 August 1944, so if there so no mention of that on the decoration plate, the authenticity of the plate may be called in question.
