John,

thanks for taking care. All I can say is that most of the other pictures in the series (which do not show a/c) have been identified as being taken in the Hotton area, Ardennes, Belgium.

There is another series predominantely taken in the Stolberg sector in Germany in November 1944, but I would tend to rule out this area for the picture in question. Not much to go by, sorry.

I had hopes that

a) this Messerschmitt is already known and identified from other pictures or
b) the distinctive small tactical number without an outline, "combined" with no other markings, could be of use to identify the unit.

Best Regards

Matthias
