Re: 7/01 - Bf109s on eBay

Hi ouidjat,

"Not a plane, but interesting story".

The story of Bimbo is a little bit different than described on the picture.
Not "came" to the Luftwaffe - no, he was a pow.

Hptm. Joppien had left a pow in St.Omer. What to do with him ? So Priller took him. This pow was Bimbo. He was a perfect coffee-cooker and served the pilots. He was very popular with all.

The picture shows Bimbo as congratulant with Priller

Reagrds,

JohnnyB
