Seeking date, apparently in late 1939, when Lt Friedrich-Franz von Cramon joined Stab I./JG3, and was appointed Gruppenadjutant

[Larry Hickey]

Hello,

Lt Friedrich-Franz von Cramon apparently joined Stab I./JG3 sometime in late 1939, and was appointed Gruppenadjutant at least by 23.3.40, when the new EKMs were issued throughout LW units. He moved with Maj. Lützow to Geschwaderadjutant of JG3 about 24.8.40.

1) Does anyone know the actual date he was first assigned to Stab I./JG3?

2) Are any photos known to exist of his a/c during the spring of 1940, up to the time he transfered to Stab/JG3? We have one photo that is probably his a/c with a single Stab chevon undergoing camouflaging, circa July, 1940, but both the camouflage and markings are incomplete and it makes a poor profile subject for the EoE Project. I'm trying to find a photo of his a/c anytime in 1939-40 with his full markings, either while with Stab I./JG3 or Stab/JG3.

Thanx for any help you can provide.
