Generalfeldmarschall zur Luftschiff Abteilung
Just about the time the forum went haywire, I posted a link in the WW2-General - thread to some awesome WWI Axis photos being posted from someone's personal album.
At that site (Some family Photographs - Crashed Aircraft etc. - World War 2 Talk), in the first post, second photo, is what appears to be a French aircraft (the roundel on the wing, underside, appears French colors) that is not only the ugliest dang thing I've ever seen, but also the oddest I've seen in a long time.
When I first looked at it, I thought the rear of the fuselage had been damaged...but in all actuality, it's not! It almost looks like a laminated wood beam just stuck in there holding everything up...the bicycle leaning against it gives you a little perspective to it's dimensions.
So what is this?
