Re: eBay: Allied intrest
Regarding #3649_4 which I think you mean is 3659_4 (?) as I can't see a 3649_4, this aircraft is 229 Sqn Hurricane V6704 shot down in France on 26 October 1940 (P/O McHardy).

Hi Nick thank you - I had same research :-)
- the individual letter is visible and maybe it's O
- the sheaves of grain in the background indicate the date for the summer harvest.

Well Nick, he had a lot on his mind back then so perhaps not every day was a happy one?

What ever, I can't help a remark here, that in spite of his name, few Americans actually did so much
as he did in his lifetime.

Cheers
