Martin Bormann, Hitler and Erhard Milch at Werner Molders' funeral ceremony, Air Ministry, Berlin, 28 November 1941.  In the second row, Julius Schaub (Hitlers Adjutant-in-Chief) and SS-Sturmbannfuhrer (later Gruppenfuhrer) Dr. Karl Brandt - a real doctor, unlike some of Hitler's other "medical advisers".

Molders was killed in an air accident, somewhat ironically, while on his way to attend the funeral of Ernst Udet, which took place in the same location shortly before.  Best regards, JR.

Cooking on the desert is really a hard job: the field-kitchen of the Luftwaffe’s Jagdgeschwader 27 (JG27). Victor Sierra

Cooking on the desert

South-East Sicily, 27 March 1942: returning from a mission over Malta, the Uffz. Felix Sauer of Luftwaffe’s 10.(Jabo)/JG53 experienced an engine failure of his Jabo (Jagdbomber/Fighter bomber) Messerschmitt Bf 109F-4, W. Nr. 7473, Weiß 3 (White 3) and was forced to land at the foreshore in front to Pozzallo. The photo show a moment of the airplane’s salvage on the part of German ground crewmen (the man on the left attached to radio mast seem have a good time). The pilot escaped unhurt, the aircraft was little damaged but was later declared a 90% loss, probably on account of the salt-water damage caused by the rising tide. Note the emblem of this fighter-bomber unit of the Jagdgeschwader 53 over the fuselage’s white band, this latter marking the Luftwaffe’s aircraft operating on the Mediterranean theatre.
