Today's Color Pictures


First of all I must thank the people who sent me the color pictures they have taken around the world in the many battle camps of the Second World War. This section, as   indicated by its name is being made up by the pictures taken after the end of the war and it is open to any of you who would like to contribute. I am sure everybody will be thankful and interested on seeing these pictures from places they don't have the chance to visit and that are related with World War 2 as well as pictures from some of the countless World War museums around the world. Thanks a lot to everybody that helps to make this section be under permanent construction.

This is a big one because I thought somebody might want to read the text at the left. It is the uniform of a Luftwaffe officer.

A beautiful Messerchmitt Me-109 (later models).

Messerchsmitt Me-262 Schwalbe (Swallow). The most beautiful airplane to fly in the skies. Enjoy its silouette. (These are not too good pictures because of the backlight)

I guess you always wanted to see it from this position.

I have no words...
