The wheels of Mac's jeep are spinning. Is he stuck? I'll bet he didn't get out and push.
Good shots!
They are not A-36s. The ones in the foreground are Mustang Mk.1As destined for the United Kingdom, whereas the olive drab ones are a part of the British order that was diverted to the USAAF, the aircraft were NA-91s, designated simply as P-51s without the 'A' prefix.
A wee thing to remember, the Mustang/P-51 originated from a British requirement and so the RAF received it first, as the Mustang I. USAAF interest came subsequently.
Yup, echoes of Robert Capa at Omaha Beach on 6th June 1944.
Wow! I took this in 2017!
Yup, two landed by accident on a Chinese beach and this one was evaluated and eventually sent to the USA.

Here it is today, on display at the RAF Museum.
A minor correction to the title, 467 Sqn was an RAF unit, but was a Commonwealth squadron and the Aussie units were often referred to as RAAF squadrons, although strictly speaking they operated under the command of the RAF.
IMHO the information about the crash site is incorrect. Ettenheim is a town in Germany, east of the Rhine river. AFAIK this a/c, MACR 13375, crash landed near Altenheim.
"This was a deciding factor behind how prisoners were treated - as evidenced in the following discussion..."
American soldier: "Hande hoch!"
German soldier: "Wait, wait..." retrieves dog from glove compartment...
American soldier: "Awwww...
