Another detachment to Gutersloh tale.

This was a French fighter [type?] c. 1970.

They stayed a week and were hugely successful with several wives in the Mess, such that several turned out to wave goodbye as the squadron taxied out.

Behind the scenes there was frantic activity by SWO and his minions, erasing the zaps that had been stencilled during the night.

These were very artistic representations of what I might call the flying cocks ............ a rampant winged penis with bulging gonads a-dangle.

The Met. Office shutters, being ground floor, received one such. Hearing that the jankers-wallahs were erasing them, we either removed the shutter or closed it [memory fails me as to this detail].

Either way, it survived, to be displayed to selected visitors along with the back of the old Luftwaffe stationery cupboard, complete with wartime swastika .
