Bf109 E-3 W.Nr1342 is going to wear the markings of 'Yellow 10' or 6./JG51 , and is about to be painted as such.
Photos of the pilot Fw Eduard Hemmerling in the cockpit with a 'sheep' emblem painted on the fuselage under the cockpit have been found.
As you say , almost none of the aircraft is original .... of the remains recovered off the beach ...nothing was reusable [ which begs the question ... why recover it anyway ! ]
