I noticed that too - I thought it would at least give him an ear ache!
Don't worry Keith, I'm sure those Italians gave it back to us when they drove themselves into a POW camp.

They must have raided the Motley mount off something else too.

Interesting how they have draped the Italian flag over the bonnet for aircraft recognition.

The Long Range Desert Group had a round paddle with the RAF roundals on one side and the Axis symbol on the other. A quick flip when the nationality of the plane was apparent was all that was needed. It didn't always work though.

I still have to make one for my Long Range Patrol Group vehicle, but I haven't found out which Axis sign was in use in 1940/41. Any clues out there?
Regards Rick
