This weekends photos.
And some wonderful detailed photos of Junkers Ju 87 D-5's of the German unit 1./SG 3, taken in Finland in 1944.
In June–August 1944, 1./SG 3 formed a core part of Gefechtsverband Kuhlmey (Detachment Kuhlmey), a temporary ad-hoc Luftwaffe unit deployed to the Immola Airfield in Finland during the Finnish-Soviet Continuation War.
While stationed in Finland under the command of Oberstleutnant Kurt Kuhlmey, 1./SG 3 (led by Staffelkapitän Oblt. Hans Törfer) flew hundreds of close-air-support and ground-attack sorties against Soviet forces.
