Re: Photo of an Me 262 of KG(J) 54 from a recently expired eBay posting
I should add three another points:
5. Only numeric codes are present on KG(J) 6 Me 262s and these are plain without outlines:
I. Gruppe: 7. = white; 8. = red; 9. = yellow
6. KG(J) 54’s Me 262s have larger numbers that are outlined:
I. Gruppe: 1. = white; 2. = black; 3. = yellow
II. Gruppe: red (see below)
III. Gruppe: 7. = ?; 8. = ?; 9. = yellow
6. KG(J) 54’s I. and III. Gruppen Me 262s wore different style and colour “Totenkopfwappen”: I. = white; III. = yellow.
7. The handful (4) Me 262s of II. Gruppe's "Ausbildungs-Kommando" were from I. Gruppe and photos of one show it has a I. Gruppe wappen. Their numbers were plain red for the II. Gruppe.
More documents and photos are required to better understand these interesting units.
Best,
David
