I doubt that's the Poland in 1939. It is a British Vickers Carden Loyd Utility Tractor B. The Germans captured a number of them only in Belgium in 1940 where the vehicles were also produced under the licence by SA des Ateliers de Construction de Familleureux in Brussels. The Germans designated it as the Artillerieschlepper VA 601 (b).

BTW ... the vehicle wasn't parked on the "nose" but on its back. ;) :evil4:

Curtiss XP-40 Warhawk, 11 October 1938. The prototype will make her first flight in three days.

And despite all the sites and sources that say the first flight was piloted by Ed Elliott, that's just not true. In October 1938 Elliott was still in the Navy, stationed in Hawaii. His service record says so, and his son confirms it. How his name became associated with that first flight is a mystery.

Is there only one Ed Elliot?

If not that may be the answer.

You can tell they are all commissioned officers because not one of them has worked out that someone needs to be in it to
make it go. They are probably still there.
