Hey guys. I need pictures of German parachutes... parachutes in actual use, packs on the back of pilots and airplanes, and anything else you can think of. Three or four good ones would suffice, but I need at least two of parachutes actually in use. Via email, or hard copy that I can return to you. If any of you guys could help me it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a bunch.

Actually, both of these posts are very helpful. Rick, any photos you might be able to send along would be most appreciated. What is the best way for you to transfer them? Since they are post war, a brief explanation of the differences would be necessary but the pics would still be most helpful. Thanks again.

In The Jasta Pilots there is a picture of Ltn Gustav Fradrich of Jasta 7 being fitted with a Heinecke Parachute Harness...
Unfortunatly I do not have a scanner, but perhaps another member of the Forum can post it for you... Regards, Scotty |

Stephen,
Off the top of my head, I recall the Raesch Diary (Js 43) being published in a C&C (USA) issue (the exact one escapes me), where there were some photos of Ltn. (?) Schmidt after his parachute descent (face burned), and also some photos of Heinicke (sp?) parachutes attached to various pilots. If you want, I can take a day and research this further for you. Hey, what the heck, I'm officially retired. Rick |
