    Did you realise that aircraft artwork was so widespread during World War Two?

      I have a question: why did German officers put those ribbons inside of their uniform if you know what I mean

    Great video!
    I think the other obvious reason the nose art was popular was it was fun.
    You might also mention that the nose art in the Pacific Theater was much more racy as it was far from the eyes of the public, unlike the European theater where the planes were regularly seen by the local public.
    Cheers from Tokyo!

    My wife loves the nose art. I bought her nose art calendars for years when they were popular two or three decades ago.

    types of bombs lunched by drones
    comands given on sailing ships (like ease the sheets and get ready to chine, or slack n beases, basically things you hear movie capitns say)
    why did the nazis never return (or a video on best occupations)
    why did the Japanese empire fall, dont just say "America" like things like how there army and navy argued alot

    I used to build model aircraft in my teens, and would always try my hand at "nose art" on each one; some were cool, some were lame, none were easy, but all of them gave me a sense of personal pride and attachment to each plane; I think the same could be said for those who actually flew in these amazing machines.

    Important to point out that the U.S. Navy in WWII was adamantly opposed to custom art and were real sticklers for enforcing official paint schemes.

    0:41 the first use of aircraft in warfare was in the italo-turkish war. also poor hitler, getting bombed by aircraft carrying disney characters which he liked
