Seeking photos of 4 & 6./ZG1 Bf109Es with II Gr Bar behind fuslage cross: Aug-Sept, 1939

[Larry Hickey]

Hello,

For the EoE project color profiles, I'm seeing photos of both 4. and 6. Staffel Bf109Es from II./ZG1 during Aug-Sept, 1939. This unit was renamed JGr101 on 28 Sept 1939, and the II Gruppe bar was removed from unit aircraft. 6 staffel probably didn't carry the "Racki" running dog emblem on the cowling during this period, but if anyone has photos of any staffel a/c with that emblem and a II./Gr bar, I'd really appreciate knowing about it.

This is holding up the profile part of our project. Have good coverage of the Stab of II./ZG1, and 5./ZG1 Bf109Es during this period but not 4 and 6 Staffel.

I'm also seeking good photos of 1./JGr101 Bf109Es during the Phoney War period. It is not known if this unit carried a Staffel insignia during this period, although both 5 (Devil in the Clouds) and 6 Staffel (Running Dog) did.

Who can help fill these gaps in the photographic record?

Regards,
