    This photo brought me an idea how it looked when the whole unit (squadron, wing?) were started. How hard had to be split together into 1000+ formations in case of Eight Army. Unbelievable!thank you for photo, Barry!

    A beatiful photo, Barry. Any info where it was taken?
    BTW: It was probably Minnie the Moocher, if memory serves well, according to the post war "The Blues Brothers" the movie.

    G'day Andy!
    The credit on the Website stated "Micky the Moocher" so maybe the movie was wrong?

    Not sure when or where it was taken.

    I'm finding all kinds of hits for Micky the Moocher, including a corgi model (sadly out of production).
