That Dornier pilot, did he won a medal for the most unusual place to park the plane? That and the summer uniform of that flack crew are just unorthodox images of war. Too bad the Imam Ro 44 is not in colour, the red stripes are something else
You call it summer uniform @neil-foster calls it camp nazi. All depends on your politics, I guess, or as you say, your personal take on ‘unorthodox images of war’.
Rob !! C’mon pal you’re feeding these to me aren’t you, I’m actually lost for words on this one….at least there helmets are nice and shiney….
Mate I actually laughed out loud at this one ,cheers you’ve made my day.

Brilliant and inspired collection, Rob. Some amazing diorama fodder, as usual.

Yeah, camp nazi is much appropriate.

Just short of going commando or the origins of a nudest colony. Of course the helmets for the ladies are a distraction.

There’s that word ‘helmets’ again.

#2 is inside a Catalina ,right?

I think so. I had another photo of the same gunner from outside and I do recall the ‘bubble’ and characteristic waist where it slopes in the area.
