Sorry, every time I see a picture of a 108 I think of Von Ryan's Express. When I saw the movie in the theater as a kid it made an impression but I remember thinking "These aren't right!". Even the markings look displaced, like desert camo worn for Alpine duty. Without checking, I also seem to remember it may have starred in The Great Escape. There it might have been just a generic German aircraft for that scene. The picture with rockets from Von Ryan makes me wonder if it or the derivatives were ever used as light attack craft. Maybe someone knows?

I believe that SchlagtGeschwader 997 "Mermeltier" used them in that role ........... cough !
Nice shots!
Yup, not merely the Jungmann...

Hazy memory, but close, I guess. Thanks, great reference site. Lots of bloopers, for sure. Someone here should know the history of the captured T-6 Texans depicted in the movie. For infiltration of Allied flight schools?

No training. NAA57's and NAA64 were built under license and operated by the French. After defeat, many went to the Fliegerschule (and some went to the French again after German
defeat.)
quite a few in my thread here: North American NA-64 NA-64 P-2 or NAA-64 P-2, NA-57
i.g.
DS+31 in Wevelghem 1942/43 9./JG 26

Astounding picture and info. Thank you. I was tongue in cheek but in this case Hollywood basically got it right!
