Hi Pierre,
In 1940 the first part, 57003 related to 5/JG2, but who, is another question.
Joe.

57003/32 Lt. Roland Prym 4./JG 26
57003/34 Oblt. Burchardt Böker 5./JG 77

I thing that my guy belongs to the JG 5

Re: Who can help to identify a Bf 109 pilot

These unit codes were changed from time to time, as an intelligence countermeasure, so a lot depends on the date the EM was issued.

Andreas

Hi Andreas,
Thanks for your trial ... The guy is definitely not the one I thought (he had another EM, obtained from E. Mombeek). So, another information : he was killed in France near Amiens...

Re: Who can help to identify a Bf 109 pilot

EM belongs to Lt. Hans-Joachim Rimarksi, 5./JG 2, +19/8/1943.

A long shot, he was identified in the meantime.

Anyone has news from Pierre Watteeuw?
