Re: 'The Mighty Eighth' and Culture Shock.
 

I recently saw some reprints of guidance booklets for U.S. servivemen coming to the UK in 1942 to help them deal with their culture shock on coming here, also similar ones for British servicemen on meeting the French following D-Day. Can't remember which shop might have been Waterstones,

Guys, you have not seen Russian aircraft from the period of the civil war. You do not know what the "nose" art is! ;)

Thank you all. I am now going to try to find out what kind of stuff the Americans painted on their WWI planes.

One of the Squadrons painted their SPADs in 'Eastah Eggs' colours, but this was post war I think. Definetelly most colourful were Russian aircraft, then possibly Italian.
