Unidentified He111 insignia on two force-landed a/c Western Campaign

[David Ransome]

Hi Denes,

Just dug the book out, 'Hungarian Eagles', on the back cover , No. 36. Forgive lack of accents "Sas - eagle - 102/1. Gyorsbombazo szazad, Hajduboszormeny. Me 210Ca-1. 1944-1945"

I kknew that it wasn't exactly the same but the wing shape and shading were similar albeit not two toned, and I couldn't tell whether all was visible on the 111! Like many squadron emblems I thought that there may have been earlier or later versions.

Regards,

David

I've run the image through photoshop, enhanced it, put it into negative and can only agree with David, even if there is no bomb, or indeed an eagles head the rest of the image, the two wings conforms very closly to the unit makings in 'Hungarian Eagles'.

Cheers

Chris
