Slightly off topic, but evidence that this was not confined to Commonwealth Forces. When stationed at the airfield in Hildesheim, West Germany (the airfield that the Eben-Emael raid was mounted from - and in my time aka Tofrek Barracks) there was in the cellar of the Officers Mess (the Officers Club in Luftwaffe days) a rather well done caricature of Goering sitting astride a fighter plane (aloft) with a keg of beer under each arm. The picture was apparently preserved as of historical interest and we were not allowed to deface or paint over it (so I was led to believe).
