Re: Red cross and Ju-52

Sergio Luis:
The small swastika is part of the stylized eagle, see the profile.

That´s correct Peter, forgot the badge has a swastica as well as it´s big not "very small" as on my memory...

Re: Red cross and Ju-52

Thank you Von Alles!
I've a lot of doc about many planes but apparently not enough about the Ju-52!
No Signal or "Ju 52 in action" available on my bookshelves, but I'll put a blink in my DK13!
Cheers,

@ Sergio Luis: have you found the last on E-bay, as pointed at by Von Alles?
Regards,

Re: Red cross and Ju-52

I had forgotten they were there!...
Two pics found in RK13: first one in vol.1 p.166 (D-TABX), second one in vol.4 p.131 (D-TABY).
Who knows about the drawing which was on the left nose side of the fuselage, apparently on a white rectangle?

Re: Red cross and Ju-52

Thanks Von Alles!
I don't know this unit emblem...
Have you any information on the name of the Luftwaffe unit who used it?
Can somebody describe what is shown on the white rectangle and tell us precisions about the colours of the different parts of the drawing?
Cheers,

Re: Red cross and Ju-52

I have found another Red Cross Ju 52 wiyth a D-[consonant] registration : D-VDZA
And a "sister ship" of D-TABX/Y : D-AOHU, this time with a true civilian registration.

All the best

Re: Red cross and Ju-52

Hi Von Alles,
I've also found a picture of D-AOHU which looks exactly like D-TABW-X-Y!
But nothing about the unit's insignia applied on D-TABY!
Black lozenge on white rectangle... but what else?
Was it the emblem of a "Sanitary Evacuation Unit"? If yes, which one?
Who has any idea on the subject?
Regards,

Re: Red cross and Ju-52

Yes, Von Alles! It is! Green after white!
But I'm a little bit disappointed as to the unit's insignia...
Nothing has come to light, till now... Was für ein Sanitäs einheit?
Cheers,
