Actual photo history: This story is kind of cool, basically he rescues a pilot from drowning, then gets back to man his station as machine gunner without bothering to dress and then thr plane takes off all while under fire.

I mean, priorities are priorities, and getting some clothes definitely wasn't one in that situation
i totally understand why the pilot did it, of course. but technically, isn't he violating international law (i think its the geneva convention) which says you have to wear a distinguishable uniform in battle?
He's not on the battlefield, he's in a machine with his country's identifier painted on it.
Now, if the plane crashed and he survived it might be an issue.
I find it kinda funny how there's a "This is the enemy" sign. It sounds like it's part of a tutorial.
