P-40’s Shark Teeth Didn’t Originate From The Flying Tigers...Here’s the story....
Tumblr media
The AVG Flying Tigers got the idea after seeing a newspaper picture of a P-40 from the No. 112 Squadron of the Royal Air Force. Fighting in Egypt, Sudan, Greece and Crete, they were one of the first squadrons to fly the P-40 and painted them with the shark mouth because they thought the intake looked perfect for it. That’s why they were nicknamed the “Shark Squadron.” Although the idea was theirs to paint the Warhawk, the graphic was not.....

The first documented use of the Shark Teeth nose art was by the Zerstörergeschwader 76 group of the Luftwaffe. Formed in 1939, they flew Bf 110Cs and it was them who were first seen painting their noses with the iconic shark teeth logo. They didn’t have the eyes on them as that was added by the RAF, but the shark mouth appears to be their original idea.

Went to the beach today! Here's my shark tooth and one shell haul.
I also found a roly-poly at the beach and dubbed him Fred.

Sharks continually shed their teeth.
Some shed approximately 35,000 teeth in a lifetime (shedding teeth every week), and they replace the teeth that fall out.
There are actually four main types of shark teeth!
•Dense flattened
•Needle-like
•Pointed lower with triangular upper
•Non-functional
These teeth are layered in rows inside the sharks mouth!
