Re: about III/JG 53's Bf.109 E.without Hook Cross
This has been discussed many times before. It is linked with the appearance of red bands in place of the Pik As badge on the cowling and was said to have been prompted by a disagreement with the Luftwaffe and the then Kommodore. Pik As and tail crosses reappeared in November 1940
