And here's a Camel not with one but two machine guns!

(Sorry, couldn't resist).

hmmm, one wing would be dromedary, two must therefore be bactrian. poor thing is missing one rear leg completely and only has one poor shrivelled one back there that appears to be missing it's foot. no wonder they are called 'tail draggers'. probably can't carry much of a load either. their main advantage was being able to swim in 3d in that gaseous fluid we call 'air'.

they were however famous for not needing anywhere near as much water as a mammalian camel, but did drink a lot of petroleum product, and had a fondness for spitting castor oil in it's rider's face. the secret rarely mentioned malady of ww1 pilots was their perpetual diarrhoea
