1917 04 Albatros DIII - Andrzej Deredos - box art RevellGreg VanWyngarden:… depicts the Albatros of Oblt. Kurt Grasshoff, commander of Jasta 37. Grasshoff was Ernst Udet’s commander, mentor and predecessor in the command of this unit, which he led from 10 January 1917 up to 7 November 1917, when he left for Macedonia (placing Udet in command). He commanded Jasta 38 in Macedonia until he was wounded on 12 June 1918. The painting accurately portrays the black and white diagonal unit stripes on the tail of Jasta 37, as well as Grasshoff’s personal emblem of a sunburst on the fuselage. Someone did their homework; however, the “rays” of the sunburst actually had slightly wavy edges -- source link
