Hi there Franck! Glad you pick up again your good old habits to boost our interests ;-)

http://www.ebay.de/itm/Foto-Pilot-ME...item35d36cce96
Pic no 10 is a real head scratcher: labelled as being a JG 52 plane shot in France, 1944. It actually shows the pilots of 2./JG 11 atop of one of the Stab /JG 11 Bf 109 G-6's in Husum, early 1944. The third from left is Uffz. Siegfried Rudschinat. Information courtesy of Gorm Helge Grønli Rudschinat, Bf-109 Messerschmitt Group, Facebook.com, 14 March 2014.

Cheers
Marc

You're most welcome Franck!

With an important correction though: Gorm Rudschinat informed us that this pic is actually showing all the pilots of 10./JG 11 at Aalborg Ost, early 1944. First one, holding the dog is Oblt Heinz Grosser, Staka 10./JG 11.

Cheers
Marc

Ah ...

Alois Jakob (Fw.) the owner of the photoalbum from which this picture is extracted was effectively in 10./JG 11.
Better like this...
Are we reading "Bruder", wrote on picture?

And you can wisely compare with the following photo: http://www.me109.info/display.php?a=e&fid=7402 (Background constructions).

Regards, Franck.

Yep, I did so Franck, for the buildings and for seeing Rudschinat at close quarters. Do you know more about Alois Jakob ? I checked out Prien but did not find him... And we do read Brüder, with Umlaut... though I wondered if we should read Bründler.

Cheers
Marc

Nothing more than what is written in the Kracker list:
i.e:
Fw 190A-8 Werk # 731034 "Blue 2" (dam 4/5/44) & WIA 5 April, 1944, during aerial combat with a P-47 in the Alencon area; DOW 22 July, 1944. One known victory, his 1st, a P-47 in the Alencon area on 5 July, 1944.
...
I suppose that "Alençon" is linked to the seller "France" caption.

And Bruder & Brüder are both family names, too... Didn't find any Bründler though.

Cheers my friend.
Franck.

Re: eBay: Bf 109s. 15/03/14

Hello,

I'm particularly interested in knowing if anyone has any identifications for the Bf109E crash photos, especially "White 14" of I./JG3. I don't recall seeing other images of this incident in France during 1940.

Regards,

Re: eBay: Bf 109s. 15/03/14

Yes Larry,

One of the reasons I did start this thread!

"Rote 2" (Sic), a Bf 109F of 2./JG 3 could very well depict the Lt. Erich Buchholz accident at St Pol Brias on 16-May-1941. 95%. (Bf 109F-1 WNr. 5727)

Regards, Franck.
