Watson´s Whizzers Me262 „Pauline“ / „Delovely“

Hello,

the Me 262´s captured at Lechfeld and refurbished by the 54th ADSq (Armament Disarmament Squadron) are well known.

Platoon leader Master Sergeant Freiburger and his men named each plane with a girl name such as „Wilma Jeanne“, „Marge“, „Joanne“ „Vera“ and so on, written on the left side of the nose.

After Col. Watson´s Whizzers took over the planes and had them ferried to Melun-Villaroche in France, those names were painted over and replaced by new names, chosen by its pilots.

So Captain Ken Dahlstrom´s „Pauline“ was renamed „Delovely“.

I know a photo of „Pauline“. But is there also a photo of „Delovely“?

Does someone know the Werknummer of this Me262?


Kind regards, Karl
