A very original camouflaged Me 262 of KG (J) 54

Hi there Gang,

Thanks to Snautzer, here are some links to a very original KG (J) 54 Me 262 shot down in April 1945, photographed by James Giannopoulis:

From the amount of dirt on the wings, I would guess a bomb or artillery shell landed close to it causing the damage.
