Re: Me 262 Jagdverband Honor Goblet sponsored by Messerschmitt Augsburg
Hello,


By chance, I found a photo of Me 262 White 17 on page 337 of the German edition of Galland's "Die Ersten und die Letzten" (The firsts and the lasts) that looks exactly the same as the Me 262 on the goblet (even the cloulds match). It looks like one of these early photo series that show Me 262 with a similar camouflage (like White 13: http://www.geocities.com/tgenth/Me262_8.jpg)

Is there anything known about this particular White 17 on page 337 of Galland's book and also about the photo? Was it an official Messerschmitt photo and published already during the war?

Thank you.
Regards,
Roger Gaemperle
