Oberst Gunther Von Maltzahn
A question..
At the Bundesarchiv there are photos of the delivery of the Bf.109 by JG.53 to 3° Gruppo Autonomo CT (photo by Ketelhohn).. And in addition there are other two pictures (photo by Marnowitz) where the Bundesarchiv given as "1941-1942", but I think they are even of May 1943 during the day of delivery of the Messerschmitt..One of these pics is with oberst Gunther Von Maltzahn interviewed with an italian pilots on background. The other is with a Bf.109 and Macchi with italian specialists. Do you think my interpretation is correct? Thanks to all, Daniele. Last edited by Daniele Gatti; 28th April 2012 at 18:18. |

Re: Oberst Gunther Von Maltzahn
I don't think you are right. In the "Pik-As" Geschichte del Jagdgeschwaders 53" by Jochen Prien, vol. 2, the two sets of pictures are published in two different chapters: that one of the von Maltzahn interview is in the chapter devoted to Stab and II. Gruppe in Sicily mai-october 1942; the other one (Bf.109 delivery to 3° Gruppo) is in the chapter 14 mai - 9 july 1943.
The Bf.109 in the first serie of pictures is a Bf.109F-4 of the Geschwaderstab but this unit had not anymore F-4 in service in september 1942. ciao Gianandrea Last edited by Gianandrea Bussi; 14th April 2013 at 21:57. |
