Re: Loss details for He111, WNr.3161 possibly with KG53?
Going off on a slight tangent, but does anybody have any documentary proof of this emblem being associated with Stab./KG53 or do with think (as I do) that it is a personal emblem? I note from reading the entry for this unit in the excellent "Bomber Units of the Luftwaffe, Volume 1" by de Zeng IV & Stankey [Midland, 2007], that at the time of this loss, the unit had just relocated from Lille/France to Radom/central Poland with 6 (4) He111H's on strength. Photographs of these He111's seem pretty thin on the ground, so can anybody here throw any additional light on the use of this emblem?
