Re: Dornier 17Z shot down 4th July 1940

Clint,

That's the cookie. The printed photo shown on the post is so small that it doesn't enlarge well. The view of this I have in the EOE DB is much larger but is from more of an angle. Would like a high quality, high-res view of this insignia if someone has one. I've compared this closely with what is visible on the many photos of 3Z+GS, and it's pretty clearly from this a/c. Apparently it's on display at the "Army Museum of Flying," in England, a place that I'm not familiar with. Surely there are excellent color photos of this available. I note that the article that you referred me to on the LEMB board says this is one of two versions of the KG77 shield still extant. What is the other one, where it it, and are good color photos available somewhere?

Regards,
