4./S.G. 10 Fw 190 Gs Ostfront

Just found interesting webpage with letters and photos of Leopold Wenger, among them following photographs of Fw 190 G-3s of 4./S.G. 10 in the East. Have not seen any photos of Fw 190 Gs from Eastern front previously... are you aware of any other of this kind (from ebay etc.)?





best regards,
Pawel

ps. Also... the 'white 5' seems to have only its left aux. tank attached, would it be possible to fly the a/c in this condition?

I have all of Wenger's photos so there are more. Amazing how these photos are now appearing all over the place

As I understand the person who created the webpage received information and photos from Wenger's brother.

Yes and using photos from my book in places (without my knowledge I should add). Translation odd in places-SS ranks for Luftwaffe aircrew? Ofw Gerhard Limberg if he was still alive would be most angry

I am locking this thread as the web site posted is by a neo-Nazi and, as such is not acceptable on TOCH. Not only that, but I will stress, again, politics have no place on this forum. Keep your political views to yourself or take them OB. There are no ifs, ands, or buts about this policy.

If you do not like this policy, do not visit this site.
