French Pilot POW picture
On Ebay was picture of French Pilot POW. (ALthough I didn't buy it-I did make
a note of it(for reference only). It must have been taken early int the war because a guard has Spike Helmut (ALso although caption describes one pilot-picture shows possibly pilot and a observer) The only writing was followin ( I can't read German) "Gefangene Flieger offiziere eines abgesch.feindl.flugeues (?)" What did captionmean? |

The un-abbreviated German annotation reads:
Gefangene Flieger offiziere eines abgeschossen feindliche flugzeug Directly translated: Captive (Prisoner) flier (aviator) officers one shotdown (downed) hostile airplane
