Hey pcomm,

Mebbe he's sniffing it to see if there is enough gasoline in the concentrate to begin using it? But yea, its unusual to see crews mugging for the camera.

Is it possible thats a 'recent' photo with a restored Pz. 4?

Just askin,
WhiteWolf
Outstanding, welcome back.

That photo is a WWII snap shot and is the real deal. Past that don't know the image history. The image I have is large and it does look like 2 cans of paint up there, but your mess kit is cool. Looks just like USA Boy Scout gear too. LOL.
My digital WWII image collection is from various sources and some were passed on (in shoe or cigar boxes filled with little b/w photos) by relatives who were wearing US Army flight, infantry, engineer and TD uniforms
in Normandy and other sectors of the ETO. But at this point I can not tell which image (friend or foe) came from who or where, other than they are all clearly not reenactors or images made to look vintage.

B-17F crew: top row, 3rd from left, an uncle.
