Re: Some enlarged and 'tweaked' known photos of Me 262s

Hi Nick,

So far, I have not seen any documentary evidence of KG 76 having Me 262s. Moreover, Jan Horn in KG 76 Die Chronik ... makes two references to an Ar 234 marked "F1+DA". However, just to muddy the waters further:

This is a composite photo showing the styles and sizes of the markings by KG 51 and KG 76 and the placement of the black "F1" and "9K" ahead of the balkenkreuz. Note that in both cases the bottom of the 'aircraft letter' matches the lower white bar of the side of the balkenkreuz.

In a previous thread on W.Nr. 500079, Matolion posted a link to this poor photo from "A History of the United States Army Twelfth Armored Division".

Best regards,
