Egon Troha, Stkpt. 9. JG 3

[VtwinVince]

Just trying to clear up some confusion regarding the identity of this officer's ME 109, in which he was shot down and captured on October 29, 1940. According to After the Battle, Troha was flying 5+1 during his final combat, yet Foreign Fields of the Luftwaffe says he "inherited" Yellow 13 from his predecessor, Hauptmann Dr. Albrecht Ochs. Also, in Mombeek's book Jagdwaffe Volume 2 Section 3 there is a colour profile of Troha's plane, showing it as 5+1, but recounting Troha's assertions that the markings and kill tallies were those of another pilot. I'm wondering if in fact this aircraft was the one flown by Dr. Ochs, not Yellow 13. Any help of course greatly appreciated.
