Ju 52 KC + RT, France 1943

Hi,

I saw on Ebay this photo of Ju 52 with markings KC + RT in France 1943:

http://www.ebay.de/itm/Frankreich-19...AAAOSwZ8ZXA~Pb

Any idea to which unit it could have belonged?

Thanks in advance

Hi, thanks but I don't really understand: you mention that the taktisches Kennzeichen of the unit you mention was N 2 M, but the Ju 52 on the pic has the KC + RT... sorry if I don't understand your answer, but I am not an expert of Luftwaffe identification numbers...

Regards

Re: Ju 52 KC + RT, France 1943

Thanks Rabe Anton,

do you know the WNr. of Ju52 coded KC+RT?

BTW tactical tailcode N2M was assigned to 2./KGzbV172 (N2M = 4V+MU).
In contrast to KGrzbV102 this unit served in the north african theatre during spring 1943.
I./KGzbV172 was renamed IV./TG3 in may 1943 and 2.Staffel became 14./TG3. Unit and tailcodes were still unaltered in july 1943.


Thanks
Armin
