Pictures from my Grandfather 1.(F)123 Norway 1942 ff

Thank you very much, Much appriciated!

Most if not all the photos are new to me, but its the logbook that says so much. Very interesting entries in his logbook; several flight to the Faroe-Islands, but no flights to East-Iceland.
"LB" notation on flights on the A6+EH and A6+FH over Scapa Flow, Leirwick etc. in May and June 1942 likely denote Luftbild (Vertical Photo-"Mapping") from that altitude. Two aircraft with these codes were lost in the autumn. All Ju 88 D´s could carry larg mapping cameras but it appears most flying was visual recce at lo level.

Also still having Do 17 (A6+OH) in summer 1941, and also flying Do 17 with 1.(F)/124 (code G2+AL) was surprise, I thought long since replaced by Ju 88 D´s. The Fw 200 Condor training in summer 1942 likely because unit 1.(F)/120 got some of them in the autumn. Note there is NOT "Ju 88" marked on flights in November/December 1942, so I wonder if these are Ju 88 or Fw 200.

Best regards
