Question PLS help to indeficate - Bf109E-4/B from II./LG 2 or Erpr.Gr210?

Hi all!

Reading new book, I found two very interesting photoes:



But - some strange thing are there:
1. Markings - II.(Schl.)/LG 2 had black triangle with Personnal letter as marking of aircraft. Bf109E-4/B on photoes have number "7".
2. Markings - no bar after BalkenCross means this aircraft is from I Gruppe, not from II (as II./LG 2).
3. Camouflage scheme is very different from all others known Bf109E's from II./LG 2.

After it, I compared coloured profile of this aircraft with another, showing Bf109E-4/B of 3./Erpr.Gr.210, pilot - Oblt. Otto Hintze.

They looks very simular.



1. Both II./LG 2 and 3./Erpr.Gr.210 used the same airfield - Calais-Marck.
2. Erpr.Gr.210 was I Gruppe, and marks of that aircraft is counts better to Erpr.Gr.210 than with II./LG 2.
3. Photoe is quite poor quality, and colour of number "7" could be"Yellow" (to 3 Staffle), not "white" (as it shown on coloured profile).
4. As it shown on coloured profiles, camouflage schemes of both "Emils" are very simular.

So, my question is - to what unit this Bf109E-4/B own - II.(Schl.)/LG 2 or 3./Erpr.Gr.210?

Best wishes,
Evgeniy Velichko.
