Late war Bf 109 pictures source

[Marc-André Haldimann]

Ferdinando,

I played along with what my Mac can give as picture edition; the result is clearer then I would have expected: xx4 609 is clearly to be seen. The second digit might be a 6 and the first is lost forever... Thus W.Nr. (4)64 609 is the best match.


Thanks for checking it over;-))

Well.... finding or the image owner and high resolution scan would be even greater. Who is owner?

Why not drop the webmaster of the link provide by Marc in post #161 Srecko?

Incidentally, rather than personally take credit for providing this link, as can be seen in the link provided by Christian in post #148, it was LEMB member Richard502 who originally posted a direct link back in April'10...

I guess that the best way should be to contact Ian Brown, curator of the fantastic site http://www.stalag18a.org.uk/ and ask him to get in touch with "...Kathryn Shepherd, daughter of Pte Ken Bee..." who supplied those G-14 photographs we are all interested at...

Don't know if this is the fastest route, but is undoubtedly the more correct one.

Peter- this topic become huge and simply I can not trace all post here. At least I am not responsible for any content or material post here so I see no problem if I ask for optional info.

Thank you for attention anyway

No worries, Srecko;

Peter was only bringing back to our quite over flooded memory the topic on LEMB which ChristianK already brought back to our attention in post 148.

As for the huge quantity of information, maybe we could keep a better track by splitting it in four main sections:

G-6
G-14
G-10
K-4

What do you think, Ruy?

Cheers

What a ridiculous comment, what was my post trying to do? I am sorry... I won't bother in future...

Peter, if I may dare, there are clearly communication problems between you and Srecko, maybe due also to his not native English...

IMHO it could be of great help if you both would exchange directly in PM to clear things. Only an opinion and please forgive the intermission.

All sorted now chaps Moral of the story, always take into consideration that English is not the mother tongue of everybody who posts, that way misunderstandings like this are less likely to happen... (thanks also to those who got involved outside of the forum... you know who you are)

Now back to the discussion...

The caption to the photo in post #152 simply states that these Bf109G-6's or Bf109G-14's possibly belonged to a Jagdfliegerschule and that the yellow band after of the balkenkreuz became an identification device for all training units...
