WW2 USAAF "THE WORRY BIRD" NAMED CREW AT DENVER, ORIGINAL PRESS TYPE PHOTO U58 | eBay
Yes they were. Bader was famous on both sides and his downing provided a publicity opportunity for the Germans. After having a new set of metals legs parachuted to him, he was a guest of Galland and JG 26 where he was allowed to sit in a 109 as the pictures show before being shipped off to POW camps.
One would think Bader should have declined such a publicity event for the other side. In Holland we would call it collaboration.
