Re: Fw 190 A-8 W.Nr. 173078 --> Anything known?

After they refreshed at Husum I./JG 2 moved for a shirt while to St. Trond and then to Merzhausen in September 1944 where they would stay until 1945. At the end of the year they completely converted to the Fw 190 D-9.

Therefore, I assume that the aircraft was either found at Merzhausen or was handed over to another unit at the end of 1944 where it was continued to be used until the end of the war. Is it known to what unit(s) JG 2 handed you ver their Fw 190 A in December 1944?

I have been trying to find photos of JG 2’s Fw 190 at Merzhausen taken in fall 1944, but could hardly find any in my books. Does anyone know in what book such photos can be found?

Thanks
Roger
