I don't know the story behind this burning Jug.  But what kind of bombs are those?

Gutsy of that ground guy to stand beside the bundle as it teeters back and forth.

gutsy, or stupid? The training we receive today is if 1.1 is engulfed in flames, there is no fire fighting..just running

Since there is pierced matting down it is most likely on some landing ground in France. (notice the Invasion stripes)  A collapsed landing gear while taxiing or during warm-up since the prop is not bent back too much.

I go with MiloMorai, the jug is only standing on the starboard gear, must have gotten blown tire or anything?
