L Detachment of the 22nd Regiment.
The ORIGINAL SAS, only 60 men and 6 officers.... Talk about British foolery and paperwork.

Even the name SAS is a bit off: The only thing they had to do with aircraft was running around in jeeps blowing them up!

The Rosarious Flying Circus, named after its CO, Luftwaffe Major Ted Rosarious.
Give up? This was a special Luftwaffe squadron that operated captured Allied aircraft for air combat training. They had 3 P-47s, 3 Spitfires, a Mosquito, 3 B-17s (later passed to KG 200-the Luftwaffe's Special Operations unit), a Short Stirling, a B-26, P-39 (from Russia), P-40 (from North Africa), two P-38s, a B-24, and at least 4 P-51s. All the bombers eventually were assigned to KG 200 for long-range recon and for dropping German agents behind Allied lines. Several B-17s and B-24s were recaptured at the end of the war, still wearing full German insignia.
