Jagdstaffel 60

Royal Prussian Jagdstaffel 60, commonly abbreviated to Jasta 60, was a "hunting group" (i.e., fighter squadron) of the Luftstreitkräfte, the air arm of the Imperial German Army during World War I. The squadron would score over 52 aerial victories during the war, including seven observation balloons downed. The unit's victories came at the expense of six pilots killed in action, three wounded in action, one injured in a flying accident, and two taken prisoner of war.
