Wehrpass and photos Jagdgeschwader 52

[Ralle84]

Hello,

today I got a set of a NCO serving with Jadgeschwader 52.

I got some questions and maybe someone can provide the answers :

- What badge he wearing in the colourised photo?
- To whom belonged the shown Me109s?
- The Wehrpass says he served with Luftwaffen Sanitätsbereitschaft mot. 3/VIII on the Westernfront in 1944/1945. Where exactly?

Thank you in advance.

The badge is a wing and fightergroup insignia for IV JG 51.

Great, thank you.

But why he he wearing a Jagdgeschwader 51 badge? He never served with this unit

I am not very strong in emblems of JG 51 or JG 51 but I could not find the badge he wears:
