AIRCRAFT COLOURS AND MARKINGS OF THE FIRST WORLD WAR ERA

Jasta 15


Jasta 15 was created from Kampfenseitzer Kommando Habsheim on 28 September 1916. Ernest Udet was their first ace. Js15 joined the newly formed JG.II under von Tutschek in November 1917. Upon Tutschek's death in March, Berthold took command of JG.II. When he came to JG.II he brought all the pilots and aircraft from Jasta 18 with him along with their red noses and blue fuselage and tails. The pilots and aircraft previously serving at Js15 then went to Js18.

NOTE: The darker red noses are incorrect and should be the same bright red as on the majority of other blue tails seen below
