No point pretending it didn't happen. There may have been some captured aircraft re registered with RAF roundels, but.... that would confuse the casual observer.

Original Luftwaffe insignia (bar cross, not swastika) with clear history ok IMO.
(And I had great uncle and grandfather die in WW1)
Good point, well made.
