Re: Luftwaffe 'Vapour trail marking'?
I suspect it is a myth, but some of the reasons presented here don't necessarily hold. If it was visible from the ground, it could be visible from the air. If it was used as an initial guide, it wouldn't matter if it was dissipated by smoke and flames - by then it would have done its job.
It seems more like an pathfinder awaiting its right time by flying a holding pattern.
