Re: Seeking into on the use of Stab symbols on 1940 Bf110s from the Stab elements of NJG1

Thank you René. You are right on the confirmed/unconfirmed argument.
Nevertheless I can't believe the Bf 110 had six victory markings in October 1940 while based at Deelen airfield.
Ehle scored his fifth confirmed victory in February 1941 and there is no unconfirmed victory listed by Dr. Boiten's excellent work in the period between summer 1940 - February 1941.
There is a picture from your collection in the Nachtjagd Combat Archive The Early Years, showing three daylight victories plus Ehle's first nocturnal victory (Bf 110 G9+AL). The latter victory was scored on the 21st July 1940.


Anyways, I was quite disappointed when I found this out, because I wanted to build a Bf 110 from Deelen.


Kind regards, Timon
