Help with Bomb graffiti translation

Hi,

Has anyone got any suggestions as to what might possibly be chalked onto the side of this bomb. It is hung under a Bf109E-4/B. Some suggestions are as follows:

Ein ????
Bom - Bom

Ein ????
Bom - Rupp

Ein noch
Bon Voyage

Ein Hoch
Bon Voyage

Any other ideas would be welcomed:

Re: Help with Bomb graffiti translation

Hm ok let me try,

I read there : Ein Huh Bom-Bom

so in the german area were I´m from a Bom-Bom is slang for a candy

and Huh - thats a word - more a sound you use if you like to scare little childs,

it could be translated, mutatis mutandis, with horror candy.

Only what I suspect behind.

Regards

Re: Help with Bomb graffiti translation

Thank you Michael. Your suggestion looks the closet to the actual letterforms chalked onto the bomb. Would ’Ein Hoch, Bom - Bom' make any sense?

I think it realy just "Huh" where I´m from in germany the people will understand a
"Schreck - Bombom" - hard to translate but to understand as a candy to scare people so the sense will be " horror or terror candy".
