During the WWII North African Campaign the Allies captured a dozen or more intact Fiesler Storch from the retreating German and Italian armies. More than a few were pressed into service against their former owners. RAF's Air Vice Marshall Harry Broadhurst used one as his personal transport. Others were utilized as liaison and artillery spotters.

The two pictures included show one Storch repainted in USAAF colors. The roundel on the Storch and the markings of the P-38 in the background suggest this Storch was perhaps being used by the 37th Fighter Sqdn. of the 14th Fighter Group somewhere in Tunisia around late 1943 or early 1944.
