This skin represents Carl Degelow's Fokker D7 of Jasta 40. the skin was created with perhaps more accurate 5 color German lozenge camo(there is considerable debate on the subject). Degelow was Staffel commander of Jasta 40. Before the war he worked in the U.S. as an Industrial chemist. He was the last German soldier to recieve the Blue Max. He is credited with 30 victories. -
