Mystery Ju 87-B Fuselage Section
The late 'Bill' Hamblen of Bournemouth had in his collection this rear fuselage section of a Ju87 B bearing the code letter 'D' in yellow.
This item was, evidently, an ex-scrapyard find and was for a time on display at Tangmere, and then on the IOW. It is now in a private collection. Can anyone hazard a guess as to the origins of this interesting relic?? PS - I have been reminded on another forum of Ken West's 'identity' for this relic which he attrirubtes to a loss on 8 August 1940 "near Swanage" with the full codes A5+DN and a possible W.Nr of 1394, the aircraft being a machine of 5./StG 1. I had long ago discounted this identity as credible, but it is useful at least to be reminded of the full fuselage codes. Any ideas - Peter C? Larry H?
