Hi, looking around for photos of the Polish campaing vehicles, with aerial identification flags, I can't reach one.

I saw some colors pics, with yellow flags, but the surrounded landscape appears to be Holland or France campaing.

Any idea about the Polish campaing?. Did the germans use only the red flag with swastikas, or not? or another one?.

TIA
Álvaro

I'm currently building a Pz35T and have a couple reference books on my desk at home. They Clearly show the use of the red flag tied down over the engine deck in several shots.
I'm at work and can't upload photos right now, but just Google Panzer 35T and look at images. Scroll down a couple rows and you will see a rear shot of two Pz 35T's crossing a field. It could be a good ref for you.
I'd rightly assume that other vehicle types would adopt the same practice.

What are you building?

Sounds interesting. Post Pics when you are done. It will be nice to see it. I've just put the base coat on my 35T and will begin final assembly and adding tracks soon. Fun part is the weathering

Dave, I forget to add "for the Polish 1939", here in Armorama campaings.

Yes, its the funny part, I still building, but maybe I could start to paint the overall grey.
