The Jagdgeschwader 26 (JG 26) Schlageter was a German fighter-wing for the Luftwaffe, mainly deployed in Western Europe but they also saw service against the Soviet Union in the East. JG26 took part in the fall of France and the battle for Britain, and the Dieppe raid, remaining active all the way to the end of the war.
Major Adolf Galland was given command of JG 26 on 22 August 1940. During the Battle of Britain, the Geschwader claimed 285 fighters shot down, at least 50 confirmed by Galland.

The 352nd Fighter Group was one of the most highly decorated United States Army Air Forces Fighter Groups in World War II, producing many leading aces of the war. They took apart in engagements all over Europe including Normandy, France, Rhineland, Battle of the Bulge and the invasion of Germany.
They moved from the US to RAF Bodney in Norfolk England on 5 July 1943, initially with the P-47 Thunderbolt. Later, in April 1944, they transferred to the P-51 D Mustang, adopting their unique blue nose marking and the nickname the “Blue Nosed Bastards of Bodney.”

After the 296 IAP was renamed the 73 GvlAP, Lydia was given flight command of their 3rd squadron and continued to fly for the 73 GvlAP until August 1st, 1943, where she was ‘presumably’ killed in action.
