AIRCRAFT COLOURS AND MARKINGS OF THE FIRST WORLD WAR ERA

20th Aero Sqn. USAS


The 20th Aero Sqn had the "Bolshevik Mad Bomber" as their unit insignia. This had been put forward by Lt. Guy Brown, and after he was shot down and captured on 26 September 1918, the unit grudgingly adopted it as their insignia. The background colour shown is speculative.
