ME262 of the ST DENIS SQD of the CATHOLIC CHURCH EXPEDITIONARY AIR LEGION , WARSAW. EASTER SUNDAY 1947





































"Thus Far and No Further." Those where the words communicated to the Soviet Russian Govenment by the Papal Ambassador on Easter Sunday 1947, "You will not take a step further into Poland, You will not again break a cease fire and you will not force communisum onto the Polish people, this civil war is over" he continued.

This starts a new thread I'm working on.  I'm basing it on a civil war in Poland going badly for the democratic forces, with them up against whole Army corps and Air fleets of Soviet " volunteers and Advisors ".
With the United Nations unable to act due to Soviet vetoes the Western Allies found themselves in the desperate situation of having to turn to the Catholic Church to host a non national organisation to come to the aid of Poland and any other country threatend by Soviet aggresion.

Everything looks better with the addition of British Roundels!

The French flag on the tail represents a French manned Sqd and the canopy is painted as I'm too lazy to do cockpits  ;D  ;D

Missed this one originally, great work Tim & slightly on the crazy side, Radish will be proud! :dalek:
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.
