Re: Unknown Ju 52 emblem (1939/1940)

Hi

I agree with Peter that it is the running hare. However the Ketley/Rolfe attribution to 15./KGzbV1 may not be totally accurate. Below is a (old eBay) photo of a Ju52/3m with the emblem but the code (1Z)+EX which would have been 13./KGzbV 1.

Ian

I have images of 1Z+HZ 1Z+FZ and 1Z+IZ with this emblem so I believe Ketley & Rolfe to be accurate on this emblem belonging to 15./KGzbV1

...Yes 15./KGzbV1 used the hare as an emblem, I am not dissagreeing with this, but my photo 'suggests' that it may have had wider use than just this staffel.

Merry Xmas
Ian
