Re: Need help with eagle/hawk insignia of fuselage of Bf109Es for Jochen Prien book insignia artwork
Hello Larry,
Did some further research - II./JG 3 received 32 Me 109's in July 1942 from other units; probably from III./JG 52 and I./JG 53, which were equipped with Me 109G-2's at that time. See Prien and Stemmer, II./JG 3, page 161. This might explain origin of the insignia with the wings on the Me 109 of Leutnant Hans Fuß. I am unaware that this might have been his personal insignia. Best regards, Rob
