I would have claimed a typo, rather than an identification error.

I thoroughly understand so no worries ---  I was getting the same when I posted some pics of my finished 'straight-wing' XP-86.

here is my F-86f now with its 67th fighter bomber squadron decals
the concept is that in the 50's a young polish officer defected to the west, giving the CIA information. The Russian plans were that during the Korean conflict it would try to take advantage by invading West Germany while British and American resources were tied up in Korea. The Americans decided to send some of the F-86f's that had been in korea literally overnight to Germany and painted them in European style camo to somewhat match RAF sabres.
a very mild "What if" I know.
