No, its not the roof off my back shed ...... honest!
Its a fairly large piece of skinning from the workhorse of the Luftwaffe, the JU-52
This piece came from a seller in Volgograd and while it cannot be proven, probably from one of the many that operated out of Tatsinskaya or Pitomnik Airfields ( 70 were lost at Tatsinskaya alone when it was overrun )
The JU-52 was indispensable in supplying Paulus' encircled 6th Army and evacuating the wounded.
Anyway, just an interesting relic to add to my wall....... ... hope it is of interest to others?
Cheers, Dan
