Re: Ofw Heinz Arnold's last sortie 16 or 17 April 1945?
Thanks Ruy, I didn't know that icon was even there. Roger, it was certainly not meant to you! I saw a bunch of garbage after your first post, and that was only way I could think of at the time to alert Ruy. Best to you both, Dan

Hi Dan,
No problem, I thought it was related to something that Karl wrote. I haven't seen the spam messages after my first post and didn't understand what you wanted to say :-) Hi Ruy, Thanks for the info regarding the "!" button. I'll use it when I see some spam. Regards, Roger |

Re: Ofw Heinz Arnold's last sortie 16 or 17 April 1945?
Sorry to unearth a very old topic.
In some mag of the late 60s or early 70s was published a photograph of a museum 262 after it was restored in its original scheme. Clearly visible were a laurel wreath with a red "43" and a red star above and five additional bars painted beside. The caption read: Ofw Heinz Arnold's aircraft. From the photograph, this drawing was made in the mid-70s. Wonder what the wreath meant and why "43" since he is supposed to have only bagged 42 kills in the East? Any comments, gentlemen?
