New Photos on "Buddecke" Website

Recommended Posts

Here are three pictures from the "Buddecke" website, which is always well worth a "sightseeing tour".

- The first photo is said to be Jasta 72 in May 1918 by the road Roye - Nesle.

- The second shows Jasta 69 in September 1918 with their Pfalz D.IIIa.

- The third is a birdseye view of the Jasta 5 airfield at Boistrancourt, Winter 1917.

Olham, it certainly is. Thanks for posting these. I don't remember coming across this site before. I'm going to have a proper look at it this evening.

The Pfalz can be seen in the first pic too.

 

What a shame so few colour photos were taken in those days! They would look so much better.

Wow, these are really wonderful, Paarma! I bet you started skinning Richard Rübe's craft with the 4-leaf clover?

Nice find - thanks for sharing!

Just got a better look at the Buddecke site. Just love the old postcards! The French infantry in their kepis and red trousers all blasting away at a Taube is great.
