This is obviously a staged shot of a No19 wireless set inside a Sherman. No tankie in the history of tanks ever had a white shirt for longer than 0.2 seconds

If you mean the Fw 190A in the previous post it is not the A-8. The caption says A-5 of the 4./JG26

Wojtek it wasn't the pictures that I was talking about but rather the way that people were misspelling the name Focke Wulf.

This Fw 190 A-5 W.Nr. 1197, was flown by Oblt. Otto Stammberger, Staffelkapitan of 4./JG 26, between 26 February and 13 May 1943. On the latter date he was shot down by Spitfires near St. Omer while flying an Fw 190 A-4, W.Nr. 0739, 'white 9'. He was still in the aircraft when the fuel tank exploded and although he bailed out, his parachute had been damaged by fire. He hit the ground hard, suffering a concussion and burns. He eventually recovered but was declared unfit for further combat flying. Book; Focke-Wulf Fw 190 Volume One 1938-1943, Page 264

You have to admire the ground crews. Almost all their aircraft were made of hand me downs from almost every nation, English, American, French, Russian and German. I'm only surprised by the missing Italian and Japanese. Keeping them flying must have been a nightmare
