Re:Richthofen
JG2 carried that name during WW2 and post war it and its emblem were later carried by JG71,I don't know if the name rather than the number would count. Erich Hartmann flew jets for the new unit post war until he got "fired" over the F-104 controversy. They fly Eurofighters now,still doing defense of the Reich ......errr....I mean Republic!
Cheers
