Luftwaffe unit emblems - "Battle of Britain" era

[John Vasco]

Jochen,

I was only going on what Hintze and Emmerich told me during my research into 210 regarding the lack of an emblem on 3. Staffel aircraft.

I take your point about the emblem not being applied to aircraft, but on looking at that last page in Teil 4/II, I think (I may be wrong here) all the other emblems were carried on aircraft. I can fully understand that 4./186 would take their ground personnel with them on being re-designated 3./210, and moving to Denain. It would make no sense to strip them of the complete back-up team and re-constitute a new one at Denain. Thanks for adding that information.

My best to you Jochen (and give that Hickey guy a hard time if you are meeting him on the European trip!)
