Re: Some enlarged and "tweaked" known photos of Ar 234s

80. On page 76 of his Hitler's Spyplane over Normandy, (2013) Philippe Bauduin gives this caption:
"The Junkers Ju 352 A1 "T9+AB" of the Versuchsverband, just landed at Juvincourt. The ground staff unload the Arado 234's enormous cargo of spare part and various other equipment, using a special ramp, Trapoklappe. On the right of the photograph is Oberleutnant Erich Sommer, in his black leather jacket and filming apparatus, perhaps an 8 mm camera."

81. This view of "T9+AB" at Juvincourt sows two spare trolleys and two tubular jacks to the left. Sommer is at the right filming the work.

82. This is a good view of the collapsed tubular jacks and spare tires for the trolleys. Sommer is again seen in the picture.
As well, in UK National Archives, DEFE3, CX/MSS/T260/116, XL4028, we learn that fuel bowsers with "TARE STOFF" and ZEBRA STOFF" were to be sent "BY THIRTY FIRST JULY AT LATEST TO CHATEAUDUN [sic]."
