Not Churchill

I doubt that this caricature is meant to show Churchill. IMHO it looks very much like the well-known insignia of 8./JG 26. The angry little man brandishing his stick above his head was called Adamson. Now, how did this fighter insignia land on an ol' Ju 52 - I don't know. Perhaps a wounded fighter pilot was not fit for fighters any more and was transferred to a transport unit. Or some member of this crew liked the Adamson and adopted it. Perhaps a friend or a brother of some JG 26 fighter pilot.
