The Kommodore of JG 26 Schlageter from December 1939 until 23 June 1940 was Hans-Hugo Witt. His JG 26 wing leader's Bf 109E is well known. What is often not mentioned about this pilot is that he was a survivor of the terrible crash at Lakehurst, New Jersey, of the German airship Hindenburg in 1937. He was badly injured in the crash, but recovered and returned to flying duties. He survived WWII and died in 1976. For more, see my Facebook group - Eagles Of The Reich

Halloween Tiracchana and Lakehurst magical witches!

These were a little hard because the girls outfits were hard to pull from. Juri less so cause she had the bat wing theme but Yuna..?? What is that outfit? She looks like a school boy…

So Lakehurst is a vampire and Tiracchana is a doll. I chose that for her instead of another vampire because of the massive baby head in her og. doppel design. I think it works well! I definitely like lakehurst more but they’re still both fun!

The U.S. Navy's dirigible Los Angeles is shown upside down after a turbulant wind from the Atlantic flipped the 700-foot airship on its nose at Lakehurst, N.J., in 1926. The ship slowly righted itself and there were no serious injuries to the crew of 25.
