I bought a standard 4x5" 'good deal' photo of the type that were
available to servicemen in Europe late in the war. It shows a B-25
wing and formating TIGHT under the starboard wing is a gaudily painted
FW 190 that is under new management. The cowl ring does not match the
rest of the paint job, and it appears that the insignia in a 4' white
circle under the cockpit has been scratched off. The tail is painted
in horizontal red white and blue bars and the oversize national
insignia on the aft fuselage is within the borders of a wide
contrasting color band. My question is does anyone know who captured
this particular FW 190 and what its history was? Thanks in advance.
