02/28/2015. Remarks by Johan Visschedijk: "This propaganda photo was taken by photographer Pilz of KB-Kp. Lw.5 (Kriegsberichterkompanie der Luftwaffe, War Reporters Company of the Air Force). It shows a Junkers Ju 88 A-1 and its crew of I./KG 51 "Edelweiß" (I Gruppe of Kampfgeschwader 51, First Group of Battle Wing 51) before take off.
Edelweiß is the Europe mountain flower "Leontopodium Alpinum" which was the logo of the battle wing KG 51, shown on the nose of the aircraft."
