puzzling swastika

[pelagonia]

Today I found this site on the net,

http://www.13tharmoreddivision.org/page1.html

there are two nice photos, the first of a ju88 with wnr. and the other one of a dump with some wrecked jumo 004 and a tail with a swastika that seems to have been impressed on a piece of paper and then glued to the vertical surface. Please notice how the lower part of the symbol seems to be slightly detached.
Any ideas?

Si 204 D ..+.W (?)

Looks a Si 204 used as a hack machine still with the red band and white disc (from someone with a high rank). The "bent paper" may be just the bent metal skin.

Hi guys

Some Si 204's still carried civil regs at this time.This is evident with the National Insignia on the tail.

Most likely D-O??W

seems to be an Ju 88 S-3 and it was not uncommon, there is at least one photograph in 'Ju 388' book with Ju 88 S or T with fuel tanks under outer wing panels...

Hi...

I've had a look at the '88'. I don't think it's an 'S', as it has a ventral gondola under the forward fuselage, and its nose transparency is definitely the 'beetle-eye' type, and not the later, smooth curved type seen on 'S' and 'T' versions. I've rarely seen any '88' pics showing underwing racks outboard of the engines... a nice departure from the norm.

Regards...

You are of course right and I was wrong, looks like plain A-4 subtype or sth like this

The Ju 88 A-4 on thie website was W.Nr. 301558 L1+BM ex-II/LG 1 and has bomb carrier for 250 kg (M5) under outer wing panels. These were standard already known from the A-1 version - but true, they appear as seldom fitted.

Thank you for the very interesting answers.
I still believe though that there is something strange in this siebel. Please forgive me for my stubborness, but checking a higher resolution image of this photo it still seems to me that the part of the circle from the scratch downwards is separating from the red background (actually casting a little shadow). And no trace of damage, in that area.
